Buddy

We were browsing around our netflix last night and ran across The Buddy Holly Story. It had been a really long time since I'd seen it, but I remembered the roller rink scene at the beginning and the Crickets playing after Sam Cooke at the Apollo in Harlem. It's scary to me to think that I'm the same age he was when he died. I still can't believe how much Buddy Holly influenced rock and roll in his too-brief 22 years.



Looking forward to watching The Real Buddy Holly Story that Paul McCartney produced.

Favorite things

The fact that Netflix now has the first three seasons of my all-time
favorite cartoon available for my instant-streaming pleasure,

"modern art" at the SFMOMA,

music from Zumba class,

Shakira - WAKA WAKA - Esto es Africa

and how happy Tyler gets upon receiving a free Dr. Pepper.

Mother's Day

At work this weekend, I would tell moms on their way out to "Have a great Mother's Day" and ended up getting a lot of "You too!"s back. In honor of this day, here are the two best nurserys ever.

Here's to being a mother in the very, VERY distant future.

And happy mother's day, Mama. :) I love you.

The Big Day & Netflix

This Saturday was Aaron and Lynette's wedding. I don't have any pictures yet, but here is a video that my California cousins put together from the big day.

This summer I am really excited because I renewed my Netflix account and just started instantly streaming to our tv. Now the hard part is going to be not sitting on the couch all summer. Here's what's on my list...

The Beat that My Heart Skipped

Paper Heart

No Impact Man

The Umbrellas of Cherbourg

Broken English

To Be and To Have

New York, I Love You

Ballerina

Hair

This weekend my brother is getting married and among all the craziness that is the end of the semester, I've neglected to think much about what I'll do with my unruly mane come Saturday morning. Guess I better start throwing around some ideas.

Le Festin

Watching Ratatouille for the third time in two days.
No better movie to do homework to.

Let's Rip It Up

I can't remember which blog I found this through, but I think if dancing really came back, maybe I wouldn't need to go to the gym anymore.

Shades

Mourning the loss of Tyler's new sunglasses. He only bought them a week ago and someone sat on them. Here's an old photo of them, as sported by Chevy Chase in the grocery line.
