Jump in the race.

Last time out I felt this pull in my back, like I was about to seize up or something. It was an easy assumption that it's because of the fact that I now carry my laptop every where in a satchel thrown over my shoulder. So I need to look out for that. I can carry it by the handles, but that can also could stress, and besides, hey. Shoulder strap.

I liked the Go-Go's for a while. Funny how "cool" works, Belinda Carlisle's foray into schmaltzy late 80s soft pop lost cred for the entire band ... and that's not right. Sting's solo work is also air-pudding, but that hasn't changed how I feel about the Police. 

"Club Zero" was a new Go-Go's single that came out last year. Yay, reunion. I've heard it often enough to decide I really hate it. Especially the chorus, it sounds like the theme song to both The Monkees and The Banana Splits, which you have to admit are thematically similiar.

We're here! We're powerful! "No fucks given!" ... an actual lyric. I mean, you sang "I'm Mad About You," Belinda. "Heaven Is a Place On Earth." I guess I'm withholding judgement.
