Aja Scanlon

Song: All These Things That I've Done - The Killers


This song reminds me of one of my bezzie mates - Miss Scanlon. Primary school teacher and geek extraordinaire, Scanlon and I have shared many a magic moment.


The things I find funniest about Aja is her ability to take the piss out of anyone and everyone with such precision. To the point where I find myself doing impressions of her doing impressions in a bid to compete on the funny'o'meter. I always come in average.


This song reminds me of a night when I had just split up with a long term boyfriend and Aja invited me out with her and the girls for a night in the Swan to cheer me up. Oblivious to the meat marketness of this Stockwell haunt, I went along to drink Snakey Bs and dance to cheesey indie music and had an awesome night! I wasn't familiar with this song at the time and remember Aja and her mates going nuts - "I got soul but I'm not a soldier, I got soul but I'm not a soldier". It's one of my fave songs now and always makes me think of Frasier (Aja). Love you Scanlon - hope the trans fats and canned meats are still good :o)
