It's hip to be square

You will never guess what CD I got from the library today- well I guess you could if you read the title.... The Heart of Rock & Roll: The Best of Huey Lewis and the News. Oh yes I did! Plus I picked up Joss Stone's Soul Sessions, Buddy Jewell's self-titled CD, Beyonce's Dangerously In Love, and for fun Hilary Duff's Metamorphosis. I also picked up some interesting books that are not right in front of me- so I have a hard time remembering what the titles are. Anyway- I decided to come up for the weekend again- with Easter happening.

I also went to Ella Enchanted with my niece and sister. It was a cute movie- I would have adored it when I was little. I got the book for Taylor for an Easter gift. I also got her a book called Toothless Wonder. She seemed happy with them-(I gave them to her early). I also watched a movie this last week- American Splendor. I pretty much love it. I am so completely clueless about comics, so I hadn't heard anything about it before. I will eventually buy it.

Sorry I just must say- Huey Lewis had a lot of hits- it is hard to remember that- it reminds me of my childhood- awwww! I loved the video for Stuck With You- I am pretty sure that was the one set on the beach- right?

Something that makes me physically sick lately is the obsession of TV programs changing people with plastic surgery. It started with Extreme Makeover- and that was bad enough- letting people change everything unpleasant about their physical appearance to be a 'better person'. Now there is a show that takes it to the ultimate extreme. They take average women and change them into Barbie and have them compete in a pageant. The winner will be crowned the Swan- make me puke!

My parents got a digital camcorder- so I got to mess around with that today and film the young ones. Damn I am tired and it isn't even midnight yet- old age- I am probably only going to be up for thirty more minutes before I drop. I will be around most of tomorrow- I don't know what I am going to be doing- but I will be around.
