I have this memory of being in England, being very depressed, walking past a radio that was playing "Waiting for a Girl Like You", and thinking that the nonverbal snippet that had just played really described the desolate way I felt. The memory is tagged as being post-unfriending, but then I'd have to have gone to England twice in a fairly short time, since I was there in late 1981 (see ELO concert ticket, and the famous "'How was England?' 'Smoll.'" dialogue). Maybe letters from Tigger will mention this 2nd trip? Wish I could find Ongoing Unsendable Letter to J...
