The 50's did it better

We painted our living room this weekend, and it's now a nice brick-y color. I helped (failed) taping around doors and windows and stuff so the paint wouldn't get on the wood, and I painted like 20 square inches. Not much, but I still feel pretty darn proud when I walk by those 20 inches.

More music.

I'm sure you've heard this song, whether you know it or not, because it is HUGELY popular, and pretty much your stereotypical big band song. It's called "Sing, Sing, Sing" by Benny Goodman and I seriously start at least snapping my fingers every time I listen to it. Link:

Why did music ever change from this? What I wouldn't give to live in the 40's or 50's purely for the music.

I am overly excited to go see the Senior Spotlight plays tomorrow. Based on the seniors directing them, I'm positive they won't disappoint.

I've been lacking on jokes lately (obviously you can tell from my last like 3 posts). Um....

uh....

I was going to put a joke there to compensate for my deficit, but I realized I seriously can't think of any. Oh, boy.

OUR BAND TEACHER PASSED OUT IN FIRST BLOCK YESTERDAY! Well, that's the rumor,anyway, that I am apparently spreading. We had the orchestra director as a sub instead. He talked about swagger. Our band teacher is great, but that was probably one of the best band classes I've ever had.

Starship has proved to be a pretty funny show. I'm only to the fourth video of the second act, but they are just too funny. Lauren Lopez just steals the show though. Favorite thing she's said thus far in the show: "One more word, and I'm going to wrap you up in a tortilla and eat you like a snack. Maybe with some pico de gallo."

I realize it doesn't sound that funny, but I literally laughed out loud when I watched it, and then went back and watched it 5 more times. Too funny.

I'm pretty much totally out of ideas, so I'm going to go make myself a cup of green tea. Yum.

A demain.
