A Mix Tape For Carrie



I was bored one day so I decided to place this on Craigslist.    I had many responses flood in but evfentually I was flagged and removed.  i have no idea how I voilated their terms of service.  all i wanted was to give someone else the powere that this mix tape had for me.  One guy said he wanted it but any thing he would offer would be an insult to the awesomeness that this tape is.

This is just the ramblings of an 18 year old high school senior circa 1989.  

In 1989 my girlfriend Carrie cheated on me and broke up with me. I made her this mix tape and liner notes that I included with it I retyped. It was a strange 3 days for me. Obviously in hindsight this tape was a bad idea. Shockingly I did NOT get her back Maybe someone wants a mix tape for their enjoyment. Maybe Carrie wants it.
Huey Lewis "Doing It All For My Baby"
This song showed how happy I was when we got together. I did everything for you. We were so happy. I remember going roller skating and holding hands. Our life seemed so wonderful.
Frida "I Know There's Something Going On"
Suddenly you became very withdrawn. I'd call and you wouldn't answer. I then had Donna call you while I listened in on total phone. I heard you tell her that you were also seeing Jimmy. I was so pissed and then when I confronted you and you said I didn't hear correctly. How could you do this to me?
Simple Minds "Don't You forget About Me"
It hurt so bad that you didn't want to see me. I don't know how you could forget about me so easily. I mean I really loved you! This was the most amazing 13 days of my life. I thought you loved me too!
Glass Tiger "Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone"
This song says it perfectly. Don't forget me or my heart will break. I think you already forgot me. Yesterday when you told me you didn't want to see me anymore was the worst day of my life!
Rockwell "Somebody's Watching Me"
I wish you were watching me but actually I've been watching you. I'm sorry I called and hung up but I miss you so much. I wanted to hear your voice but you don't want to talk to me. Don't be mad at Donna for letting me be on total phone to listen to you talk to her. If you'd talk to me I wouldn't have to.
Animotion "Obsession"
OK since you won't talk to me I was forced to sit outside your house. This way I could at least see you walk by the window. By the way I saw you go to your room with Jimmy. It real interesting that you told me your parents didn't allow boys in your room all the time we were together. Jimmy will never love you like I do! You know he is with a lot of girls. He will cheat on you. I never would.

Vapors "Turning Japanese"
You told me it was disgusting to do this. I'm going to do it all day. I also finished in the scarf that you left in my car. I hate you!
Bonnie Tyler "Total Eclipse of the Heart"
I really don't hate you. I was just mad. Like Bonnie Tyler says we are a powder keg. Once upon a time we were in love but now I really am only falling apart. Don't worry I'll get stronger . . ..someday.
Culture Club "Miss Me Blind"
You will so miss me. 3 days ago I was broken and beaten. I'm feeling better this morning but I know you will soon realize what a mistake you made.
Mister Mister "Broken Wings"
This song lifts me up. I know I'm better for having been with you. You make me so angry but I'm moving on. I'm not hanging out in front of your house either.

Corey Hart "Never Surrender"
I'm officially over you and am going to leave this in your locker. I won't surrender to what you did to me. I'm better than that! I was lost and on my own. The night was once cold and dark. You can't take away my fight. Also just so you know 3 days ago I thought I would never make it through this. Guess what your ex friend Donna came over and we made out in the basement where we used to make out. Take that I'm better. I hope you like this tape though because I think it was pretty awesome.

Just so you know I found out that Jimmy did give Carrie Herpes though.  If you think this is funny please share it with others.  I'd really appreciate it.  See you soon.
