Sing a song...

Mom's song is "My Funny Valentine"

Dad's is "Blue Moon"

Big bro's is "Fee" by Phish

Grandma is all Frank Sinatra

Michelle's song is "Doin' Time" by Sublime and of course her name by The Beatles

Jenna is "Short Skirt, Long Jacket"

Meg H (long ago friend) is "There She Goes"

Mine has got to be "Duvet" by Boa ... at least today it is.

Lost in Translation

After my trip to Dublin and London, I learned a few new things... but I'm still a dumb American.

To Let (rent/lease)
Yoke (if you don't know the thing you want, but you are asking someone for it)
Fanny (too naughty to say)
Fiver & Tener (5 and 10 dollars)
Bookmaker (for gambling)
Roundabout (I know what it is, but it is used everywhere there)
Solicitor (lawyer)

Have to use tube card to get out of the Underground
"Finding a pound in the Underground" - The Sundays

TV shows are a year behind, kind of going backwards (Back to the Future!)

iPod

Literally my iPod goes on at 7 am, and not turned off till like 12 am. This is now my 3rd iPod mini. The first got sand. The next one the battery died. Let's hope this one survives. I'm naked without it.

Google fun - type in "(YOUR NAME) was arrested for" to find out what your name has been up to lately. Here is mine:
Emily was arrested for beating up a classmate at the tony private Beekman School and stealing his iPod

Wind

Today is one of those plastic bags blowing in the wind, kind of days. It may look sunny and nice out, but I just froze my ass off. Stay warm!
