Raindrops on Roses...

Day 02 — Your favorite movie
I am really not a "movie" person, I subscribe to Netflix and NEVER watch my movies...Mom usually watches all the movies that come in and Charlye and Taylor stream it on their computer and the Wii, so it is actually worth the ten bux it costs every month.

I do tend to lean towards musicals. Go figure. I love love love The Sound of Music and cannot believe that I actually have friends who have never seen this movie. This movie was made before I was even born (yes, THAT old) and amazes me that I can get enthralled in it each and every time it shows up on TV (usually around Easter).  I also like both Sister Acts. Not really a fan of Whoopi, but those movies just make you smile.

The Sixth Sense is the epitome of a classic thriller. I remember going to the movies the first week of its release because I had seen the trailer and knew that it was going to be a "good" one. There were very few people in the theater, but the ones that were there heard me scream at least twice...but it was all good, because I wasn't the only one.

When I was a teenager, back in the times when you only had three tv stations, I remember staying up and watching a movie called Imitation of Life.  Wow. Talk about a powerful movie. Here is the description of it from IDMB...A struggling young actress with a six-year-old daughter sets up housekeeping with a homeless black widow and her light-skinned eight-year-old daughter who rejects her mother by trying to pass for white. This was probably one of the saddest movies I have ever seen. The fact that it was filmed in 1959 is amazing because it was before segregation had taken place and before MLK had his dream. The ending of this movie was so heartbreaking. Gonna try and put a clip in here...hopefully to inspire anyone reading this to go watch this movie.

There could never be just one...

Day 01 — Your favorite song
I have said it before...music is a HUGE part of my life, so I have favorite songS, so to make this fun...I am just gonna start a list of lines from my favorites. I know I am gonna forget songs so I am anticipating having to come back and update this list from time to time.

I am woman, hear me roar.
Slam, slam, oh hot damn.
My life seems so bent out of shape.
Why do I do the things I do.
She's in love with the boy.
If it turns blue, I should leave her alone.
Your licking your lips and blowing kisses my way.
Come on and lead me on...tease me all night long.
Why ya gotta be so mean?
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands.
Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity.
Santa Claus...he gotta mouth full of cookies.
A superstar, but he didn't get far.
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now.
I drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry.
So much pain and so much darkness, in this world we stumble through.
Boots with the fur.
Nodding my head like yeah, moving my hips like yeah.
I might of been born just plain white trash.
Throw my tv out the window, smoke a bunch of endo.
I'll be fine and dandy.


Ok. enough for tonight. like i said, i am sure i will be revisiting cuz there will be a song pop up that i will have to add to this list...hope you have enjoyed trying to NAME THAT TUNE.

Can I get a little zip zip, (lookie lookie)

My challenge to myself...BLOG MORE. It is so therapeutic...I have one building inside right now, just a word of warning to the world, lol. It's gonna be a tear-jerker and, hopefully, an eye-opener.

Thanks to JD for this idea for kick-starting my blog...maybe it will me form a habit.
