The 80s

Ok, I will confess.... I loved the 80s! I loved the BIG hair,the music,the movies and espically the clothes.

I was a Flash Dance Fanatic! The movie truly inspired me. I couldnt wait to get home and practice the dance moves! I actually had the scene where her feet were going a hundred miles an hour down! I could do that.... yes, I am saying this with a beam of pride and a smirk.

I bought a ton of sweat shirts and became a pro at cutting them out! My friends would ask me to do theirs. (again beaming and smirking) I was a hair stylist at a ~Happening Salon~ and it was the perfect place to represent the sweat shirts,the big hair AND create it also. Back then, if the top of your hair didnt touch your visor when you got into your car.....it wasnt big enough! I am from Texas and you know the saying,''The bigger the better!'' I loved it!

The music was awsum and very few groups have been able to achieve that Notoriety since. I mean who could ever come close to The Eagles,Styx,REO,Van Halen,Boston,Peter Frampton,Rush,Hall an Oats,Cindy Lauper, Poison (prayers are with Brett Michael and his family) and so-so many more! Remember all the ''One Hit Wonders'' such a great Era. Just the mention of these artist brings back a flood of memories!

So, my confession.......I LOVED the 80s......I AM AN 80S GIRL....There I said it and again ''Beaming and Smirking.''
