Last weekend and earlier this week, I took a trip out of town to visit family and take care of some more of my aunt’s estate business. Since I have not yet gotten into the habit of writing posts ahead of time, I had nothing to post here this week. I’m even having to bow out of Mama Kat’s Pretty Much World Famous Writer’s Workshop this week.
But..
I have tomorrow’s post ready!
I’m calling it “Five for Friday.” (I know that’s already in use a lot of other places, but I think it’s okay because a) a bunch of different blogs/websites use it for different reasons, and b) this blog is in its infancy and it will be a long while, if ever, for it to land on the first few pages of a “Five for Friday” Google search). I’ll list five things I’ve really been enjoying as of late. Could be songs, books, movies, podcasts, photos, random stuff…just anything. I hope to continue with it; it has potential to be fun.
So last night was the season 9 premiere of one of my favorite tv shows, American Horror Story, and this season’s theme is “American Horror Story: 1984”.
I can already tell I’m going to love this season! The wheels in my mind are already turning with theories, but that’s a different post for another time. However, the soundtrack, like in several previous seasons, is amazing. Inspired by the soundtrack (as I know so far) of AHS 1984, here are my Top 5 songs from the summer of ’84 – which, as far as years go, was a pretty good one for a newly-teenaged me (I did not hear these songs in the premiere; I was just inspired by the great music in the premiere to remember some of my own favorites from that time):
- Motley Crue – “Too Young To Fall In Love”
- Nightranger – “Sister Christian”
- The Cars – “Magic” (RIP Ric Ocasek)
- John Waite – “Missing You”
- Scandal – “The Warrior”
What are YOUR Top 5 songs from a favorite summer?
Looks like you missed one…

Great tunes, by the way!
Try that again…

Haha, thanks for letting me know. It looked like they all showed up before I hit “post,” but then again, I am not at all surprised that I skipped one. I will fix it when I get home! (Maybe.)
