a kiss from huey lewis

Eastern Idaho State Fair. Wow...it made me proud to be an Idahoan this summer. Beyond Chocolate Covered Bacon, I also got to enjoy a kiss from 80's heart throb Huey Lewis. Yes, he's older now. I'm not the best mathematician, so I googled to check, and it's confirmed--Huey's older than my father. I called to tell him that--my dad--that I have now kissed someone older than him. During the silence that followed after giving dad this news, I pictured his confusion, disbelief and deep hope I was kidding. When I told him it was 59-year-old Huey Lewis--he seemed proud and laughed. "That's my girl!"

I was asked to come out on stage during his concert dancing, carrying one of his instruments, which Huey played, and ended by kissing me. I wasn't really feeling "The Power of Love", but still, a moment to remember was made. Three Cheers for 80's Heart Throbs who never die and for allowing a girl to make her daddy proud! ;)
