You're the One for Me, Fatty

I never would've guessed 17 years ago, sandwiched between sweaty, adoring fans at my first Morrissey concert (Your Arsenal Tour, Arco Arena 1992), also my first taste of vodka accidentally showered over my head in someone's excitement, that one day a little blonde girl of my own would be singing a new song of his in the back of my mini-van. "He's my favorite singer, Mom." Go figure.

His new album "Years of Refusal" is very good. So here's some oldies and new goodies on my playlist. Viva Morrissey!

so funny. some years ago (pre-kids) i got to thinking, hey my kids should think i'm pretty hip for listening to morrissey, right?
and here i don't even listen to him anymore (love him as i always will!) -- i'm so proud of your girl.
and morrissey is coming here this summer! right when we are leaving for a trip. what are the chances??
