Say goodbye to the 80’s blog.

Just took a bath, had a cup of tea, did some yoga shoulder stretches for my wonky arm and thought about all the changes in my life over the last year, last two years, last three years, last six years, last 10 years, etc.

The last time I moved I wanted peace. I’ve got that here in my cute little house, which is more awesome every day. I fired my lawn/snow removal guys today because they don’t come when something needs doing, but whenever nothing needs doing they’re over here all the time. I don’t need the stress of seeing shit’s not been done and having to call in angry.

The 80s sucked because it was all bullshit propaganda being fed to you to sell you things. We knew it at the time and yet it was somehow all absorbed as pop culture and everyone forgot they weren’t doing those things in the 80’s at all.

If no one ever remembers that Bon Jovi only used concert footage for his videos for his 2nd album because MTV never played the expensive video the band spent loads of money on to produce for the single off the first album, then they don’t.

I don’t need to get myself stressed out because no one believes me. Not even the people who were there with me and knew it then.

I don’t need to be wound up, and I don’t need to be negative on an ongoing basis. Goodbye Things that sucked about the 80’s. It was infuriating while it lasted, but who needs a blog that makes them short tempered and angry about everything?
