1980 - I met the love of my life.
1985 - Married him.
1988 - Our first child was born.
Oh, and besides such personal matters...

David Lindley, Joe Jackson; New Age: Vangelis, David Arkenstone, Eric Tingstad and Nancy Rumbel, William Ackerman, and (sob) Michael Hedges. Jazz: Jean Luc Ponty

TV (you know the drill by now, I hope
): The renaissance of high-quality TV cartoons, including Tiny Toon Adventures and The Disney Afternoon; Night Court; The Cosby Show (back in those days, before we found out a few things about ol' Bill 
); Murder, She Wrote; and probably some more that I'm too tired to think of right now.
