Three Idiots
I’ve noticed that I give the most enjoyment to my readers when I confess that the Organizing Goddess has feet of clay. Yes, dear readers, even professional organizers are human!
Earlier this year, Barry Manilow appeared on Broadway in a concert of his music. Back in the day, I was a huge Barry Manilow fan. This was not a cool thing to admit back then, but I was fearless in my individuality and would happily confess it. Somebody once said to me, “But all his songs are exactly the same.” I replied, “Maybe so, but I like that song.”
Hearing that Barry would be appearing on Broadway got me thinking about how much his music had meant to me, particularly in times of trouble. Shortly thereafter, one of my favorite TV shows, Glee, ran an episode about guilty pleasures, and one of the teenage characters admitted to being a Fanilow. (Love that word.)
So I decided to buy a Barry Manilow CD and wallow in my uncoolness. I poked around on Amazon.com and found Ultimate Manilow, which had all the songs that were meaningful to me. A few days later, I ordered the CD. Thanks to a new feature on Amazon, you can do an instant download after you purchased a CD. I downloaded Barry and had a blast going down Memory Lane listening to those songs.
