I am a dreamer.  I like to pretend I am a guest on Ellen.  Wouldn't you just love to shoot the breeze with her?  I also will in turn pretend that I am the cool talk show host who gets to interview everyone.

And then the series becomes a movie.  And then all of the books are movies.  And I am suddenly the next pop culture icon.  I also like to go and visit my happy place.  There are no kids there.  There are no dishes.  No laundry.  Just me and my thoughts.  And probably some kind of fruity beverage with an umbrella...sans alcohol.  I go there a lot.  One day I will really go there.    Am I alone in my fantasies?

The make up?  The hair?  Am I just old school?  What's wrong with just showing girls in their own beauty?  And why do they have to be dressed up like pint sized street walkers? It's frightening how mature they make them look.   And it's appalling how the...

Then in about another 10-15 years we had to endure an ugly phase of music.  For real.  Let's face it, the 70's and disco just weren't pretty. *GAH!  My eyes!* Once music came ou...
