There were men...
And
It Rained

No Concert tonight
Soccer Guys came over for the day
Long Island Iced Teas
Laughs...
Cookout
and by the time we were all supposed to
Hit the Road
It started to cloud up
and Thunder...

So no concert for me!

I guess I will just have to start getting myself ready for SUMMERFEST...Instead

This Coming Friday...
Hall and Oates

Raining...and... Men
Just not my idea of FUN
Tonight...
What the Hell is Wrong with ME???

Actually...This particular song does bring back good memories for me. A few years back, I was allowed to go out EVERY Wednesday night...with my girlfriends. I would look forward to it...starting on Sunday already. The day of the event was a ritual....especially in the summer. I would tan all day...take a bath...then use up two hours to get myself ready...down to the very last detail. Music blaring in the backgorund...pizza in the oven for the kids...I was ready to GO OUT. And the 6 hours of night time fun...passed like the blink of an eye. We always went to the very same bar...a little bit out of the way...people started to know our names...the bartender knew exactly what we drank...the jukebox was always waiting. We would play darts or pool or dance or just sit and laugh...but each Wednesday night I yearned to never go back home. I was the only girl with a curfew...but at least I got OUT!!! And each Wednesday night we would be sure to play this song....Raining Men. We made friends...lots of friends. We did this for years. It was our way of getting away from the kids...when they were little. God...I loved Wednesdays...and Thursday we would pay! Now that the kids are bigger...teens, and most of us have gone back to work...we are not allowed this weekly luxury.
DAMN
The RAIN Felt soooo GOOD!

"Humidity is rising - Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, the street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men.

It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Every Specimen!
Tall, blonde, dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

I feel stormy weather / Moving in about to begin
Hear the thunder / Don't you lose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed"
-The Weather Girls
