Sabotage!

As you know, 80s rock is big in the Last household right now, much to my delight. Cordelia's favorite song—and note the irony here—is "It's My Life," by Bon Jovi. A close second is "You Give Love a Bad Name."

So we are, as I type, in the car on the way to the beach for the first time in months. JVL put on "Sabotage" and Emma shrieked, "OH! This is SO rock and ROLL!" Then We put on some Bon Jovi and Emma says, "Oh! You give big love a bad name is my favorite song I've ever SEEN!" Cordelia pipes up, "Me too! Oh! I taught Morgan that song today on the playground! I had her sing it over and over and now she KNOWS it and we sang it so much!"

Morgan, if you'll remember, is Cordelia's hostage special friend. Or at least Cora thinks so; we suspect Morgan has a bit of Stockholm Syndrome going on. Cordelia looks at her as a sweet pet, to the point where she apparently informs their teacher when Morgan needs to use the restroom. Here she is at Morgan's birthday party—Cora in heaven, Morgan a little bewildered. As usual.





I mean, can you picture Morgan saying "Guess what I learned at school today?" and then belting "You Give Love a Bad Name"? Her parents will be so pleased with us.

For ex, it could have been "Afternoon delight"
