Bloggit's Journal started as an experiment, but has since morphed into a window into Bloggit's technical addiction. And honestly, I had no idea I was so unbalanced. So enjoy the fruits of my condition.

Drunk Blogging 101 - Shaun Cassidy!	Mar. 25th, 2008 @ 07:27 pm

Okay, like what evah!

No, seriously!

So like I had a few drinks this evening. I'm driving home, happily relaxed but not drunk. I'm just north-east of Seattle in the grey wet gloom, so I put on some sunny music. I tend towards heavy metal, hard rock or country but rainy gloom means pop! Bangles, Bananarama, Vixen, GoGos, etc. Or Shawn Casssidy.

Except I suddenly hear an absolutely terrible imitation of White Snakes "Once Bitten Twice Shy" (and they are known by these songs; big album one was "Once Bitten", big album two was "Twice Shy") playing. In a Shaun Cassidy album. Please, no comments on my masculinity; I have both Abba and Iron Maiden, 'K?

Anyhow, I seriously began to wonder how sober I was, and whether I'd actually crashed-and-died. But nooo! If you're reading this, either you died with me or Shaun Cassidy has that very Ian Hunter song as the bottom song on his greatest hits CD. Which I've checked. The CD claims his version is 4:08 long. So what exactly did I drink?!?

Even worse, I've had both the Great White albums and the Shaun Cassidy album for at least 15 years. How could I have not noticed this?

So I'm finishing the drive home, comtemplating this connundrum (a hard sentence when slightly buzzed) and decide I need an Animal House/Blues Brothers/Ghost Busters like show to watch. But I've seen all those recently, don't like Stripes, and so settle for having the wife pull Dr. Detroit (Dan Akroid, Howard Hessman, Fran Drescher, Donna Dixon OMG!) out on LaserDisc I kid you not!) out. So that's what I'm doing right now. Unsobering up (to some Baileys/Kaluha/Godiva as soon as I pour it) to a really bad flick from the 80s. To celebrate Shaun Cassidy, who I otherwise enjoy, butchering an Ian Hunter song made big by a hair metal band!

More in a sec... under a seperate header.
