this just in:
i received an e-mail from lauracatoe.com that on October 3rd the Weekly turns 5 years old. who knew?

mr. fleegan and i saw Flightplan. it was good, but then again, have you ever seen a Jodie Foster movie that wasn’t good? hm? admittedly i’ve never seen Anna and the King, but only because there were no songs. but i know the premise from watching the musical starring yul brynner and…deborah kerr? was she the chick? oh i don’t know. i’m sure the main points are the same, she’s a teacher and he’s a sassy king who is says etcetera a lot and is used to getting his way.
i wonder if they “do it” in the newer one?
getting to know you, indeed. *wink*

*is that from the king and i? my memory is not firing on all cylinders today. i blame the trip to Lowe’s. when i was a kid i had a fisher price-type music box thing that played that song, Whistle a Happy Tune. it just sort of clinked the song out and the words were printed on the back. and it had these kids walking in the woods and they were scared and whistling. anyone?
oh my goodness here it is! wow. it looks so ugly now. i thought it was prettier than that.
*GASP* those trees! with the mouths! I NEED THAT TOY! i love that it’s made out of plastic and wood. because how old am i? must. have. music toy.
pssst. i’ve got a birthday coming up.

ha! click this picture. do you see the mickey mouse on the shelf? I HAD THAT. and oh man, you’d pull a string on his back and he’s say “i want more cheese, please.” in a highpitched voice and the bottom part of the mouth would open and close. ANIMATRONIC. and? to this day? i still say that sometimes…in a highpitched voice. CRAZY!

you can buy me one of those for my birthday too. it’ll be RANDOM CRAZY OLD TOY BIRTHDAY. YAY!
