my god who knew i would fall in love with mark knoffler? not me, but it has happened.

it started with how uchoose40 on c4 would play money for nothing just about every week no matter what the theme was. and i would text hrc and tell her that i wish they'd just bloody play romeo and juliet. and how i love that song.

even though throughout my childhood i hated it.

and so today when i saw the dire straits greatest hits for eighteen dollars i bought it.

and now i've listened to romeo and juliet a million times and have written homeperm knoffler on all my exercise books. i am so in love.
