There’s always music
on at Jodi’s parents’ house. It’s been true for pretty much as long as I have
known her.
They put in a pond
next to their patio sometime in the early 2000s, and to deter racoons and other
critters from feasting on their collection of fish, they play music 24/7 from
the garage. It’s tuned to a classic rock channel, so you get a steady diet of 60s,
70s, and 80s music while there. I think there are some 90s songs also creeping
into the rotation now.
We arrived because
Jodi’s mom had invited us for pizza, but she was still gone picking up said
pizza when we arrived. So, we visited her cats who live in the garage.
“Livin’ on a Prayer”
was playing and the first thing that came to mind was moving my sister into her
first apartment after graduating college.
I remember that my friend,
Jake, helped with the move, and that sometime during the day, “Living on a Prayer,”
played.
For some reason, the
“Whoa-oh” part right before the song title struck a chord with us that day, and
we spent most of the move, mimicking that part.
Sometimes it didn’t
take much to entertain us, I guess.
