A Little [TOM TOM CLUB] for a Saturday Night
Happy Saturday, Everybody!! I'm in a fun mood, so I thought it appropriate to pick a song I consider loads of fun for this Saturday Night. I don't know what it is about this song, but whenever I hear the melody I immediately stop what I am doing to listen!!!
I hope that this song will have the same effect on you!!! Here's "Genius of Love" by Tom Tom Club!!! Enjoy!!!

A Little [SQUEEZE] for a Saturday Night
It's another Saturday Night, y'all! Tonight I thought I would share a favorite song of mine. This song is one that I will forget about for months, and then think about it, and proceed to play it on a loop for days at a time!!! I hope you all will enjoy "Tempted" by Squeeze... and those of you who are fans of the film "Reality Bites" will be familiar with this tune!!

A Little [SHALAMAR] for a Saturday Night
Happy New Year, Everybody!!! It's 2011 and I am wishing that we all make it a year FULL of nights to remember.... (see where I'm going? lol)

Since I am still in the New Year's party frame of mind (and have the unopened bottles of liquor to prove it!) I am going to start the first blog of 2011 on a high and soulful note... I hope you all will enjoy this week's "for a Saturday Night" song... "A Night To Remember" by Shalamar.

Dreaming of Jellies...

If I were to die today, in a manner similar to Charles Foster Kane... I think instead of the famous "Roooose Buuuuuud"... my dying words would be vastly different, though (dare I presume) equally cryptic:
"Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees"
I was born in 1977. This makes me definitely a child of the 80s. And one of the fashion trends of the era I never got to participate in (thanks to maternal disapproval) was the wearing of jelly sandals. And I got to wear almost all the trends:
- Michael Jackson glove? Check.
- Remember the colorful, plastic charm necklaces? I was rockin' em.
- Eva Joia clothes? Oui Oui
- Acid Wash? Uhhhh... yeah
The only thing seriously missing from my style arsenal was jellies. And everytime I think about it, I feel a pang of regret.
I remember watching other little girls walk around in their jellies, and thinking they look so cute. I was reflecting on that a few minutes ago, and I decided, "Damnit, I'm 31 years old... I am going to get my arse a pair of Jellies".... LOL
So if you know of anyplace that sells the old school style mary jane jellies, drop me a line! I will be sure to post pics!
