Whoa, that's mighty big of you to admit that publicly.

Once, I think I was a junior, I went to a huge party under a railroad bridge and got wasted and stayed up all night. I have a very vivid memory of driving around on country roads the next morning, shortly after the sun had risen, still a little drunk. My girlfriend was sleeping in the back seat and a friend was sleeping in the passenger seat. Everything was very quiet except for Poison's "Every Rose Has It's Thorn" was playing on the stereo. (it was my girlfriend's cassette). I remember singing along in a low voice, thinking "this is a very important moment in my life".

It may have been.

No. T-bone (Tommy Lee), gave me a high-five.

I won a radio contest. The prize was an official Kramer Dr. Feelgood guitar and backstage passes. Back in the eighties I fancied myself as a hat person. I wore one of these to the show:

Wrapped around the bowler was a Motley Crue headband with the ever-present pentagram. Tommy exclaimed, "Dude, check out this guy's rig!" We slapped palms high in the air.

In college I sold the guitar for drugs. Lots of them.

During those girly times I once saw what I thought was a great blues performer at a music festival. I went up to talk to him and buy a CD after his set. He was wearing cowboy boots and his shirt was unbuttoned halfway down his chest. I remember we talked about Ry Cooder. When he handed me his CD he leaned in and planted a solid kiss halfway on my lips and said, "you're a sweet girl."
