So, despite taking that very giant grown up step this weekend and buying a house, I’ve decided to give you a list of reasons why, like that kid on the Toys R Us commericial, I’m still not grown.
10)Bodily functions make me laugh until I cry. Still.
9.) When I’m sick, I still like some Vicks Vapor Rub on my chest with a warm towel.
8.) Cookies and milk (homemade peanutbutter) can make anything better.
7.) I still get giddy and a little misty-eyed(ha!) at the end of Sixteen Candles, Footloose, Breakfast Club and Dirty Dancing…and can quote each with a clarity that is frightening.
6.) Eating Frosted Flakes right from the box, whilst viewing any and every episode of Beverly Hills 90210 is a perfect way to spend a day.
5.)I’ll never get over my crushes on Luke Perry, or Christian Slater. Sigh.
4.) Sometimes I crave a suicide. (a little bit of every kind of pop on the machine that we’d get at the skating rink.)
3.) I really get scared from scary movies.
2.)Hide and Go seek still makes me pee my pants.
1.) I get mad crushes on boys who for all intents and purposes won’t return the crush. Oh well…that’s why they call it a crush! (cue parental voice)
We’re so christening your house w/#6, even though I don’t even watch 90210.”I don’t wanna grow up, I’m a Toys R Us kid, they got a million toys at Toys R Us that I can play with. I don’t wanna grow up ’cause baby if I did, I couldn’t be a Toys R Us kid (more games more toys oh boy!) I wanna be a Toys R Us kid.”(I just wanted to see if I could still sing it. And I can. Now that’s going to be stuck in my head ALL. DAY. LONG.)

I think you’ve just gotten to the point where you need a bigger Play House with some more work space. Never the less its so nice to see you enjoying this point in your life. Its fun GD it! Does George know he has to play nice with Luke and Christian? I’ve heard he can be a really jealous bugger.

P.S. I got expelled from Junior High School because I rewrote the lyrics to the Toys R Us song. I don’t want to grow up I’m a boys r us girl. So many cocks and balls to play with. You get the jest of it.Imagine my Mother’s humiliation.

Misti, I came upon your blog by accident. You and my sister Sandy were best friends many years ago before we moved to Texas. Remembering you as a little girl and then reading and seeing what you put on this site is fascinating. You are damned funny. I am impressed.
