The Beatles -- Rocky Raccoon. From the YouTube description:
If you love the Beatles, and Rocky Raccoon. You'll love this video. If you like Westerns, and Rocky Raccoon. You'll love this video. This video took about 5 days to make. 2 days to make sets and costumes, 2 days to shoot it, and 1 day to edit it. It turned out great, check it out.
Let me add if ya love little kids play-acting... I forking love this video.
Starting 52 years ago this week, I was trying to convince Mom and Dad to take her back to the hospital and leave her there. Glad they chose not to -- in spite of my tears, foot stomping, and the occasional turning over of her crib - preferably when Sherry was in it.
Token, Bailey Cat and I will be hanging out here for Christmas. Jen will be in CA and Stephanie is in KS. Home Alone is not necessarily a bad thing -- I can eat breakfast for dinner and put my feet up on the furniture and let the dishes sit in the sink overnight. Sounds like a dayam fine Christmas to me.
Hoping you and yours have the merriest of the merries.
Spent the day hanging out with my oldest, Jennifer. We went girlie shopping (!!!) after I opened a buttload of birthday presents from her and Mike. Oh My Stars! Pants (yes plural). Long sleeved tshirts (plural). A forking jacket! Warm fuzzy purple slippers and wicked cool green and black striped socks with a purple witch on them. A tank top to layer under the tshirts. A warm fuzzy soft scarf to wrap around my neck -- my short hair leaves areas uncovered that were previously covered :) Holy moly -- when I gave her the list she asked for, I was expecting one item from the list -- not the entire forking list!
Twas a grand day and I don't feel at all guilty about all the makeup we picked out. Yes -- makeup. The last time I wore makeup was at her wedding and I can't remember the time before that. My goodness there sure is a lotta variety and styles I've never heard of. Thank goodness I had my girlie girl with me to translate. We went to the Sephora store (fanning face) and I was only nervous for a few minutes. Got right into the fun of trying stuff on and figuring out colors. A. Lot. Of. Fun.
Of course on the way home we had to stop for lattes before we scarfed down the chocolate mousse she had made. From a Barefoot Contessa (Ina Garten) cookbook -- I don't know which one but ... I am headed into the kitchen to snag some. Jen sent me home with a container for my midnight snack.
