when i first arrived in new york city for college in 1999 i was living in a rodent infested dorm on third avenue in a suite with five other girls.  i loved it!  it was like a dream come true for me to have my own place to live (in manhattan!) and a group of girls that i could gossip with and trade clothes with...one of my roommates, nicole, would often listen to this song on her cd player.  i love this song and nicole is one of the most smart and savvy new yorkers i've ever known but at the time i remember teasing her about listening to this.  at age 18 it was not quite as hip as weezer or whatever else we were listening to.  every time i hear it now i think of nicole dancing around that tiny room.  and i remember her roommate kate warning us not to mess with her gigantic collection of expensive makeup :)
