Chachi Loves Vinyl is a music geek collection. It is born of road trips across the midwest and through the south. It is born of a musty coat closet full of forgotten records. It is born of dance parties in living rooms, dorm rooms, and bedrooms. It comes from thrift stores and record stores, friends' collections, live shows, and loveworn compilations.

Wearing the pants in Vulcan's family is like....
*B.H. Vulcan celebrates Columbus Day*
So...the Bingram is having us write a simile as the clincher for each essay from now on...
This Cristobal Colon weekend, my homework - which I actually worked on between a barrage of Migraines and Chest Pains during the Mealtime Madness in the ER yesterday - was to create a simile for each of the following phrases:
Studying for an exam
The cold rainy day
The look on my friends face
Buying textbooks
Our first date
Here are my creations:
Studying for an exam is like filling your head with cotton and pulling it out through your ears.
The cold, rainy day was like the melted sludge at the bottom of an ice cream bowl.
The look on my friends face was as bright as the gleam on a flying V guitar.
Buying textbooks was as emotionally and mentally draining as watching a Lifetime Movie starring Meredith Baxter.
Our first date was like the maiden voyage of the Titanic, totally sunk.
I know. I would have dated myself by saying Meredith Baxter Birney.
