Favorite Color

and the winner is BLUE

on the sign in sheet for our Girl Scout Service Unit Meeting tonight I asked for Favorite Color - Out of eleven attending (It was Ash Wednesday - so many were at Church instead of a Girl Scout Meeting) FIVE wrote BLUE.

Still trying to figure out HOW to get more leaders to come - having an older girl for the younger ones to do activities with - so far - a bust - just seems no one seems to think the "One representative from each troop is to be at Each Service Unit Meeting" really means anything... need to figure out an incentive... maybe that Yorba Linda Service Unit has ideas!

My Favorite Color is PURPLE!

STANLEY

http://atv.disney.go.com/playhouse/stanley/index.html

was havin' a "remember when" moment - We used to watch Stanley EVERY morning. Love Dennis (the fish) and Harry the dog and Elsie the Cat, any one know the names of George Harrison's parents? At one time I thought it was Harry & Elsie - but now - all I find is "Harold and Louise" still it's close.

I still like the Great Big Book of Everything and the song that goes with it.
I clicked on the link above and Foxhound momentarily stopped what she was doing to listen!!

...and I laughed

The more I listen the more I like - this is my favorite part:

"...Do you want to, come on, scootch over closer dear
And I will nibble your ear

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed..."

Foxhound asked what "nibble your ear" means (smile)

The Geek in the Pink

Ok - Official Announcement - I like Jason Mraz too

- SO cool when parents like the same music as there kids - the link - says live in Berlin - would love to see any artist is such a small venue - so much fun to be that close - we have seen C G Ryche at Downtown Disney before and Scott August and a few others up close - and I love it - I think the artists do too -

There are several other "tubes" at the same venue - this place is tiny - and sounds like lots of the people know his songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VSmhcOeUGQ

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJxsjq2C4EE Freestyle Jam in Berlin - THIS is fun!

... had to stop and watch the Free Style -

I love Jason's hat.

More Jason

I like the lyrics...

I'm Yours - Jason Mraz

This is Foxhound's favorite song right now - I like the drums - nice rhythm too - kinda reggae - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYhrYHmUPn0

I guess Radio Disney plays it "alot". and there is a "bad" word in there too - she wonders how it gets played on "Disney"

and there is this - his official site: http://www.jasonmraz.com/#/bio/

trying to type this and read his bio and Fox keeps finding something else on youtube telling me to "look" - We Sing We Dance We Steal Things -

OK - he's cool - Foxhound says "He's SOOO Random"

Might have to get the CD

"Home - Page" - reminds me of when Foxhound and Angel were at O'Neill Regional Park and every other word was - "FOOD"

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme - Hung Up

A co-worker has been playing Madonna's "Hung Up" all week. Every time I hear the "flute" rift... I feel as is I have heard it B4 - LONG ago - So, I googled something like < "south america" "hung up" madona > - and found that, (even tho I believe the melody comes from even longer ago than ABBA - perhaps a South American "traditional song") Madonna received permission to use ABBA's "flute" theme from Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)

- to me - the melody sounds very much like it could be played on a Zampona - and I think of Sajama - a group who, I won't miss the chance to see - if I know that they are in the area and I have the free time...

listen (watch) for your self!

ABBA - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLtU7aOnp2U - Gimme Gimme Gimme

Madonna - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fVqC8rOw8g - Hung Up

Foxhound tells me that ABBA's isn't a flute - (no they play keyboard - but a "flute" sound) and really - Madonna has someone in HER band who plays an actual - flute???

Anyway - my mystery has been solved - I KNEW I had hear the tune before.

Sheldon

I REALLY did start singing the song before Sheldon did!

Rainy Day Sunday...

Linked to follow another blog -

heard that some fellow cachers were up at 4am yesterday in the rain to go caching... crazy - I like to just stay inside and sit by a fire (if we had wood) and watch the rain fall.

Dog still pestering me - I can't speak - cuz if I do he tries to jump in my lap - He's sleeping on his towel behind me right now - he likes to sleep in the chair next to me but Foxhound is playing on "her" computer so - he's on the floor (part f why he keeps bugging me)

Listening to KSBR - it's cool cuz you can hear the phone ringing in the background when the DJ announces that it is time to call in... to win something...

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain...

Romeo is bugging me!

Raining - Dog wants to be on my lap - smells the tomato soup left in Foxhound's bowl keeps trying to get it by pawing at ME!

driving me crazy!

let him lick the bowl - he walked outta the room!
Yeah!
Nope he's back - I am done here

Wonder if Foxhound's friend could still solve it with the stickers "off" -

Nineteen Something.. by Mark Wills

I love this song...

Nineteen Somethin'
Mark Wills


I saw Star Wars at least eight times
Had the Pac-Man pattern memorized
And I've seen the stuff they put inside
Stretch Armstrong
I was Roger Staubach back in my back yard
Had a shoebox full of baseball cards
And a couple of Evil Knievel scars
On my right arm
Well, I was a kid when Elvis died
And my mama cried

Chorus:
It was 1970-something
In the world that I grew up in
Farrah Faucett hair-do days
Bell bottoms and eight-track tapes
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh, man did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
It was 1970-something

It was the dawning of a new decade
When we got our first microwave
And Dad broke down and finally shaved
Those sideburns off
I took the stickers off of my Rubix Cube
Watched MTV all afternoon
My first love was Daisy Duke
In them cut off jeans
The Space Shuttle fell out of the sky
And the whole world cried

Chorus:
It was 1980-something
In the world that I grew up in
Skating rinks and Black Trans AMs
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh, man did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
It was 1980-something

Now I got a mortgage and an SUV
But all this responsibility
Makes me wish sometimes
Sometimes....

Chorus:
It was 1980-something
In the world that I grew up in
Skating rinks and Black Trans AMs
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh, man did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
It was 1980-something

1970-something
Aw, it was 19-Something.....

Waymarking!

YEAH - FINALLY got my (our) blog to be visible to get our "Blogger" Waymark approved - Took three times and two different blog sites

Caught a geocacher at our Neophobic Rattus rattus today - and let him "grab" our GIANT TB (the Geo-300) love catching other cachers...

now - how do I upload pictures.. hummmmm - got it - my elephant collection - hanging on a "towel rack"

...Waymarking

we added this to our stuff we do - as it is so similar to geocaching - like a "sister sport" - but no containers involved - and lots of times - COOL historic stuff!! Like Genoa Toown in NV - that is always fun.

must get to work...

MySpace - FaceBook - Waymarking

well - trying this blogger again - seems that blogs at other sites just don't show up - I think I set things for others to read and am told - "nope, it is set to "private" "

FaceBook sent out invites to a TON of "friends" for me on Super big Football Sunday. Re-Connected with two long lost friends because of it but also ended up sending invites to GS leaders we traded postcards with LAST year and they got upset because I was "using the email list in an inapropiate way."

oh -well - time to work - sure hope THIS blog is visible to others.
