Ledgies from the late 70s: memories?

[amber]

ok, I was born in 74, but...
I had these red bell bottoms that matched my rollerskate wheels that i loved...I thought i looked soooo sexy in those pants.
My mom's friends' older kids loved the dukes of hazzard and Kiss.
I remember my mom ranting and raving when Reagan got elected. (oops, 1980?)
I remember hearing GYOW on the car radio, and not liking it very much at the time...
apparently I sang GDW regularly when i was 3.
I remember the Olympics, Nadia, and after that I totally wanted to be a gymnast, for years. yes, I was 2-3, but i would practice my rolls, headstands, and carwheels constantly.
A joke I remember is: What's green and skates? Peggy Flem!
I loved the song "Sound of Silence", one of my first faves.
Also I remember the song "Jolene" by Dolly Parton, that's a good song.
Other favorite songs: Ghost Rider In the Sky - by Johnny Cash,
Barracuda and Magic Man I liked, remember hearing those a lot - my mom drew a picture of a stingray she kept over her bed, and I remember thinking it was a barracuda
I knew a lot of songs, because my mom would be like: "you have to brush your teeth for two songs."(we didn't have a T.V.) and also because we played this game where my mom would play a song on her violin, and i would have to guess which song...
Oh, and I started kindergarten, and sang Christmas songs every day on the way home in the front seat of the bus... yep, just sat there by myself and sang...to the busdriver, apparently
Yes, "Only Children" may have these sorts of tendencies..
