Who Would Have Thought?

As Simple Minds' Alive and Kicking came on the radio the other night as we drove through Tuscany, I made a comment about our current situation. "Who would have thought," I said, "that 20 years ago, when I first heard this song, that I'd hear it again two decades later, in a car with three gay men, driving through Tuscany, on our way to a villa for the weekend." Because you see, as a teenager in Kansas, not only did I not know what or where Tuscany was, I never would have expected to be there, overseas, for a holiday. It just wasn't in my scope of reality. My how things change.
