Two problems

I'm in a picture-taking-in-the-snow-mood. Two problems with this are as follows:

  1. We are currently in the month of May, which means there is no snow right now. This makes me very sad and the sun makes me mad. Yes, yes, I know - that rhymed...not even planned. I'm just good like that. HOWEVER, the good thing about living in Missouri is that the weather could change at any minute. I know many of you out there are virtually throwing things at me or will be throwing things at me the next time you see me. (One of those people sadly enough is probably my wonderful guy.)
  2. I am at work. Don't get me wrong, I like my work, but in this particular moment I loathe it due to my desire to be in a beautiful downfall of snow. Once again, HOWEVER, having some '80s music playing in the background helps just a tiny bit.:)

I apologize to those of you who opened this blog thinking it was going to be mind boggling and brilliant. Instead you got a rant. Then again, my thoughtless rhyme a couple paragraphs up was pretty brilliant, I must say.
I will now leave you to your horribly hot, insect-infested Saturday as I know you are now probably packing a bag full of fruits and heads of lettuce to throw at me, given the slight chance you see me randomly walking down the street.

With love...

Break a move!

I've really been in an 80s/90s mood this week with the urge to wear leg warmers (if only I had some **sigh**) and listening to the soundtracks of Breakfast Club and Footloose.

The beginning sequence to Footloose is my absolute favorite. It shows only the shoes of people dancing...I always dance along. Now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever watched that movie with someone else. I guess that explains the dancing.

OH and I watched a few episodes of Saved by the Bell this week. I own the 4th/5th seasons. I know that's nothing to brag about, but oh well...
Zack Attack is another jam that my iPhone has graced me with.

...Anyway...

Enough flashback geek time. Just wanted to share my obsession this week because I know all of you will be extremely jealous.
If you aren't...just break out some New Kids, MC Hammer, Vanilla, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Beastie Boys, Cyndi Lauper, etc. (The list could go on and on) And break out the Running Man (my fav.) or the Roger Rabbit, The Love Shack or the Cabbage Patch. It will get you in an awesome mood!

You know you want to...
If you've forgotten what awesome moves you have, then here is a tutorial on The Running Man:


AND here is an even better video of Jackson Brundage (11 years old who plays little James Lucas Scott on One Tree Hill) behind the scenes doing a little break dance of his own. This kid is an awesome actor and has some dance skillz!


Now break a move!
