gnomads and college movies

"mr.brightside", by the killers, was the first song i heard when i got into my car this morning. consequently, a good portion of my commute to work was spent singing in a bad british accent. i'm jazzed we're finally playing it. it remains to be seen whether i'll get to play it when i'm on air in a couple of hours. (i'll get up and look after i'm done with this.)

*yawning* 'scuse me. it was a long week with with a lot of that "early to rise" stuff. i'm not feeling any healthier, wealthier, or wiser, but that could be because i still went to bed pretty late on a nightly basis. ugh- i think it's finally caught up to me. so much for my plan to work out after my shift....unless i hit a second wind. (or a first wind, really, this early in the morning.)

yesterday was an odd day. things were a little rough in the wonderful world of two year olds, but they behaved a little bit better after their two hour nap. bodhi, my favorite gnomad, was back in town- and brought a friend- so i showed them around school. i took their picture with my boss, who asked if they'd be on my website, too. i was also warned to watch what i say on here....parents might be reading. so- i suppose future entries about school and my observations on parenting are put on hold.....for now. my school day ended with quite a compliment from an unexpected source, which made my day. i'll have to remember to scribble it into my private journal, which has been sorely neglected since i started my blog. maybe i'll just print out all my blog postings, staple them into my journal, and consider myself caught up..........

the state newspaper recently did an online poll to find out readers' favorite "teenage"movie from the past 20 years.....the results came out in thursday's paper. two out of the top five 80s films are from the 80s. in case you missed the article, here's the top 10:

1. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
2. The Breakfast Club
3. Dazed & Confused
4. American Pie
5. Napoleon Dynamite
6. Pretty in Pink
7. Clueless/Love & Basketball (tie)
9. Say Anything
10. House Party

where's "Can't Hardly Wait" on this list? what about "Real Genius"? oh, right- that was a college movie. in fact, there are a bunch of good college movies out there.....what are your favorites? leave me a comment or two, and after i have a few built up, i'll set up a poll on my wnok website.
ok- that's an ambitious enough project for today........
