Happy Anniversary!

(I wanted to wait until later to post this, to catch folks on all coasts awake, but as I'll be offline until who-knows-when today, I'm posting it now.)

Today is the third anniversary of the day on which shadesong and I got married!

(Although the actual anniversary moment won't be until tonight, owing to us getting married at sundown in Arizona.)

Three years, and it really does feel like yesterday. I love you, sweetie!

Say what now?

According to Wikipedia, "You Give Love a Bad Name" was originally written for Loverboy.

Granted, Wikipedia is not exactly known for accuracy, but it's believable. Bon Jovi did write another Loverboy hit : "Notorious," featuring one of the greatest videos ever from the subgenre of "videos with women who lift up their skirts just because there is a helicopter pilot who probably wants a peek." And as that rare fan of both '80s bands, I'm not appalled at the idea. I am, however, unable to imagine Loverboy performing the song.

Somewhere out there, there's a music store equivalent of the video store Tim Pratt writes about in Impossible Dreams. And I'd love to buy some of the singles from there.
