in other news...

i am home from michigan--my plane landed safely just before 11am, and i arrived safely home at around noon. i'm planning to spend today decompressing. it was a really good visit, but also stressful and sad-making. michigan is starting to look downright alien to me, which feels strange...

my return home yesterday morning was lovely, though. [livejournal.com profile] glaucon greeted me at the door with a smile and a wonderful hug. we "reacquainted" for a few, then headed out for brunch with [livejournal.com profile] evernanon, D, F, and E (not necessarily in that order). i had some delicious swedish pancakes. after that, we went back to [livejournal.com profile] evernanon and D's house (not joined by F, though) to watch desk set. yay! it was a perfect afternoon. just what i needed. complete with dog time. (i got lots of that in michigan, too, as each one of my siblings has at least one dog, but one can never have too much--or even enough--dog time!)

Hey, thanks for the musical jolt back to the 80's. That WAS the 80's wasn't it? Man, I feel old. Glad to read you made it back safe and sound!! Keep me posted on your parents, okay? *HUGS*

you're welcome! yeah, the depeche mode is from the 80's, but the erasure ABBA covers are from 92. both bands/songs feature vince clarke, though...who was also the keyboardist for yaz (he left yaz to start depeche mode, and he left depeche mode for erasure, though i think there he had one other band in there somewhere)...and he kinda pioneered that 80's synth-pop sound. dude's a genius.

it was GREAT to see you! i will definitely keep you posted.

(not sure if you'll see this...)

doh! incorrect timeline! vince clarke's stint in DM came first, then yaz/oo.
