You know what’s kind of embarrassing? I had a crush on David Bowie when I was five. That’s not only embarrassing, it’s scary. I’ve been thinking about past stupid/scary crushes over the past few weeks, ever since I saw part of that Live David Bowie request concert on A&E. It was a great system. People could call in or email and request a song, then if you’re lucky enough to make it past the producers, he’d play the song for you. And if you were really lucky, you’d get to talk to him for about five seconds. If my parents hadn’t bullied me into relinquishing the television so they could watch ‘Chocolat’, I would have called in. Just thinking about it instantly reminded me of my toddler crush. I knew just what I’d request, too. “As The World Falls Down” from that silly movie Labyrinth. I remember falling asleep to that song for several nights in a row.
And what made me think of that right now? I found an old MP3 cd and on it was “As The World Falls Down.” I really wish I would have called in. But I don’t think my parents really like David Bowie. At least I got to hear ‘Fame’ and ‘China Girl.’ There wasn another one, but I forgot what it was. This was a few weeks ago, after all.
The past day has been a bit of an anticlimax and I’ve been rather reluctant to blog. How can I top the stories of all those young men trying on pants? There was just no way. Nothing exciting really happened to blog about. Well, I did go shopping yesterday and had a lot of fun, but that’s kind of a hard thing to blog about. It wasn’t really funny, nothing really to tell about, it was just fun. It was my mom’s birthday so three of her friends came over and we spent the day at an outlet mall in Leesburg. I tagged along and ended up talking with Mike and John’s mother almost all day. We had fun, and she helped me pick out a nice bracelet which my mom bought for me. I just love getting pretty presents at other people’s birthday parties. 🙂 It’s very antiquey looking and lovely. I’ll try to take a picture of it tomorrow (or rather, today, since it’s past midnight.)
Tomorrow I might have more adventures to blog about. A whole buttload of people are coming over for a fourth of July picnic tomorrow (today) and many old favorites will be amongst them. Who knows what will happen. 🙂
P.s. Please post in my guestbook. Even though I don’t know what it’s for I still like seeing messages in there. 🙂 Please, humor me.
