Amoxicillin, DH. This is why I can’t smoke weed. My body has super strong reactions to almost anything I put in it (other than alcohol and caffeine, and back in the day nicotine).

“my parents were really big genesis/phil collins/peter gabriel fans”
My parents listened to Bobby Sherman and Allan Sherman.
Shit, *I* listened to Bobby Sherman and Allan Sherman!
The first CD I ever bought was Genesis: Invisible Touch (I think it was a compilation, but anyways it had the song Invisible Touch on it). My college freshman roommate had worked for an entire summer at McDonalds to buy a super awesome stereo system so I got to listen to my music on his system for the year. Mostly I listened to Genesis, Chess (the musical), Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares.
I didn’t drink a drop of alcohol my freshman year and made a big point of not dating anyone, until the very last weekend when the Ice Princess got me drunk and made out with me.
yum – sloppy joes!
DH – just google dire straits and am sure you know their stuff
slopefarm – I came to really appreciate mark knophler’s artistry later on b/c he’s really an amazing guitar player – but yes making movies is a solid album. “So Far Away” I think is one of my favorite songs….

“my parents were really big genesis/phil collins/peter gabriel fans – so it’s ingrained in my childhood (much like sloppy joes)”
Ok, ok, I’ll take out that AARP membership now.
