DJ Tiesto's Crashing Wave of Nostalgia

I downloaded a tune from Imogen Heap because I recognized the lyrics from an SNL skit, of all the unlikely places. Anyway, I wound up getting all nostalgic for the time in my life where trance and techno occupied most of my waking moments, while discovering the next type and imprint of the next batch of Ecstasy took up the rest.

I'd sit at work in New Orleans with - Christ, what program, Napster? - yeah, Napster (before it got in trouble and started charging)open on my monitor, ready to minimize to the bottom of the screen should the head honcho or his nosy, rotund wife could come walking by, not that they'd understand the list of files and progress meters streaming by.

Anyway, it was a grand time to be a young professional in New Orleans - lots of glowsticks, though...
