The Music of My Life – 1985

Welcome back to The Music of My Life, where I feature ten songs from each year of my life. In most cases, the ten songs I choose will be ones I like personally (unless I explain otherwise).

Your Wish Is My Command

I can't remember what site I saw this on, but thought it was interesting to see the responses. If you had one "genie wish," what would you wish for?

What’s Up, Doc?

This week I found out that the doctor's office where my primary care doctor practices is going private. To be honest, this is the first time I have ever had this happen.
