Old notes

I was changing purses to one I hadn't used in over 3 years, based on what was inside, and I found a few slips of mystery paper with some scribbled notes. One looks to be a list of bands that I guess I wanted to buy some songs of:

• Psychedelic Furs
• Pretty in Pink
• Pet Shop Boys
• Van Halen
• Smothers Brothers
• New Order
• Everlast
• Dream Academy
• Big Country
• Europe
• Flock of Seagulls
• ThompsonTwins
• Yaz
• Fiona Apple
• Ever After
• Enya
• Red Hot Chilipeppers
• Nirvana
• XTC
• INXS
• Lenny Kravitz

Not a whole lot in common between those groups, though a fair number are from the 80's. Some of it I do own and some I still don't have.

The other thing must have been a story note...

They were expecting a boy. Athletic, tall, and tan, perhaps with grey-blue eyes, like my father. Someone driven by the fifty-yard line, a grasp like steel, plodding effortlessly through life. Someone without hesitation and fear. "No Fear Here! That's my boy!" Someone...not like me.

Not sure what I was thinking about, but interesting tidbit to keep. I find these things all the time. I've got more story ideas than I know what to do with. Which, I guess, is a better problem to have than the opposite.
