In high school, my friend Amy and I would drive around, with no destination whatsoever, in the middle of winter (which, in the mountains of Colorado means an average of 30 feet of snow a year and cold cold cold) with all the windows down in the car and the heat on full blast, eating tons of candy and listening to #8 endlessly.
And in junior high, one of my most vivid memories is is being 11 years old and riding the bus after a track meet. All the popular girls were in the back singing along to "Copacabana" (a song I still hate) and current (at the time) hits by INXS (a band I still have a hard time liking). I was way up front, sitting alone in a seat with my brother's giant 1986 walkman, listening to "White Riot" and "Hate & War" over and over and over again.
