Shoot The Moose

It is 1985. Here are 10 things about me:

1) Favorite Song: "Kyrie" - Mr Mister.
2) I am one year out of tech school and one year away from crashing and burning at MTSU. 21 years old. What a dope!
3) I weigh all of 132 lbs. I am doing everything I can to gain weight.
4) I still maintain my "virtue". This is NOT by choice.
5) I have started my music career. I've written enough songs for our band to make a 8-song demo. It was pretty bad, but I thought I was the next Dylan.
6) I see "Back to The Future" about 10 times at the Lions Head Cinema.
7) I see Rick Springfield at Municipal Auditorium. What I remember most was being one of the few men in a sea of hot and bothered girls and women. Good Times. Til Tuesday opened up, and to this day I don't know if the bass player was a man or a woman.
8) Not wanting to go the Way of the Mullet, I go to the hair place in the 1st level of 100 oaks and get a perm on my quite long hair. I remember thinking it would make me look like a young Springsteen. With my glasses and wispy mustache, I ended up looking EXACTLY like Weird Al Yankovic .
9) I drive a 10-year-old, falling apart white Pinto. I took out the 8 track, put in a Pioneer cassette player. I was big stuff.
10) This "woman" shows up at a Halloween party the band is playing wearing a multi-colored sweater dress, leggings, high-heel boots and green and orange hair. She comes to a couple more shows (sans costume). Then, she starts showing up for breakfast at the McDonald's I worked at. I finally get the message, and I go on my first date with Lintilla late that year. We go see "Santa Claus, The Movie".
