Dude, where's my melatonin?

Some thoughts:

I suspect that pretty much everyone over the age of 22 and under the age of 40 knows the words to My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion. My anecdotal evidence is that I was in the car driving to school the other day and that song came on and just for fun I decided to not switch the station. Now, I have NEVER liked that song. I didn't like Titanic. I thought they were both sentimental, girls-make-your-boyfriends-buy-it trash. I honestly have made an effort to NOT listen to that song for as long as I can remember. So after I was still singing along at the end of the second verse I realized that without ever trying to, I totally had all the words memorized. This led to a disturbing thought, what other useless crap that I REALLY DON'T want to know is stuck somewhere in my brain, taking up space that I could use for some of my friends birthdays or something.


I was thinking about the term "coed" recently, as in "coed softball". I feel like 25 years ago a female college student was just referred to as a coed. Like five dollar cover charge, coeds get in free kind of thing. Anyway, I might be wrong about that but I usually assume I'm right. So then I began to think about how that's probably considered a little demeaning these days and I've never actually heard someone call a college girl a coed. What I do hear about a lot is coed sports. I'm not sure what it is, but I think there's some kind of implication there when coed used to just mean "college girl" and now it means "guys and girls playing sports together". Its up to you to pursue that thought any further.

I guess that's all I got tonight. It is after 5am, I think I'm gonna try to sleep.


Well, the night train keeps on chuggin',
