holy 80s!



when i was a kid... (a VERY young kid) i thought i knew everything there was to know about music... i was called the music queen by my friends... when i look back, i can't help but laugh...(like a rabbin hyena.. seriously... if i was drinking milk, it would shoot out of my nose (gross!) right about now)
i had the best psuedo boombox, and had a respectable collection of tapes and a variety of songs...(like.. 40 tapes... haa haa)
i was the queen of music b/c i had all the debbie gibson tapes... and i listened to europe... and roxette... (oh, how naive...)
but now, that i've grown (but not matured... ) and i know a thing or two about music...(but not really... however, considering that i once thought that kate bush was copying tori amos.. i think it's safe to say that i know a bit more than i used to).. anyways, i digress...
so nowadays, i find myself yearning for some good cheezy 80's music... cindy lauper, the cure, duran duran, rick astley, and even debbie gibson... man... i was such a HUGE fan of hers...(as i type this, i'm sitting listening to my walkman, to her debut LP, out of the blue... and i plan on listening to the other 2 i have, electric youth and anything is possible) i just saw these cds for sale on ebay for like... a cent... or a couple of bucks... i want them... i asked special k to order them for me... we'll see what she says...
there's also a rare movie that i want.. on vhs from 1979... i was the last to borrow it from my local video store.. and then it vanished.. i was sad.. :( i've searched the net and other video stores... but no one has it.. ebay is selling it for under 15 bucks... is it worth it? i mean.. it's SUPER RARE... mmmmm quandry.... quandry indeed...
well, back to debbie... the teen mall queen... i love her... and there was a period where i disowned her, b/c i was too cool to listen to her.. but ya know.. she's ok... she wrote her own songs, sang them live, produced her own stuff, played her own instruments (guitar, piano and i think drums) and all the tender age of 19... (she was the youngest to produce and perform a number one hit...) so i have a bit of respect for her... (she later went on to be a smashing success on broadway, singing in grease, les mis, and a bunch of others...)
so, advice anyone? about ebay? should i ask special K to order the cheap debbies and the rare movie?! should i buy some nostalgic piece of my childhood? (happiness for a cent... life's good :D AND affordable!)

and lastly, (just to tie in w/ the pic above) there's a wonder woman movie coming out... she ROCKS! AND there has been talk that my gal's up for the role.. there's actually a petition out there for her to be in it.. i haven't signed it... should i? i dunno, i don't believe in pressuring the director into casting just b/c smone is popular... (that doesn't mean that i don't think she can do it.. i think she can do anything... but well, nevermind.. this post is too long as it is... i'll discuss this later...)
random quote: i'm out of order?! you're out of order! this whole courtroom's out of order!
