I Cannot BELIEVE I'm Writing This...

::looking around:: Ssshhh.... I have to tell you something. And it's a little... uncomfortable to say. C'mere. No, closer, don't make me say this out loud.

Ready? Okay. God, I can't believe I'm going to write these words.


High School Musical is pretty darned catchy. You can thank Will for this latest brainwashing.
Unless you've been under a rock (or possibly don't read PerezHilton or any other gossip blogs - or don't have kids), you must have heard of HSM by now. Will, my 8-year old who wears skulls and listens to Iron Maiden and Twisted Sister, has fallen under the HSM lure. I'm really quite happy about it, actually - it's nice to see kids enjoying something made for kids, rather than having them desperate to grow up and watch things made for grownups. I secretly love when he asks me for KidzBop CDs because I want my 8 year old to be 8, you know?
So I recorded both HSM and HSM2 the past week, and decided I was going to sit down and watch them with him. Well, I watched HSM2; but we'll probably watch HSM together too, since that is apparently even better. And I ended up really digging it. Now I've got that "All for One" song stuck in my head. At least it's catchy.

OMG, I thought I was alone! Thank you for coming out the closet! My 8 year old really likes HSM and Jonas Brothers too......
I hope you do register for Prevention, I think you will like it there. It's small but everyone is really nice.... Hope to see you there! Love, Snow

He he, Amanda liked the first one enough, but in the year lapse between it and the second she kind of 'outgrew' it...although she was watching HS2 on New Year's and thinks Zac Efron is "gorgeous"...I have my theories on him, he he. Did you see the remake of "Hairspray?" Actually it was pretty good, too, he's also in it. Love Queen Latifah! Amanda likes the Jonas Bros. too, even Hannah Montana!

I agree about trying to keep kids kids, Amanda still loves watching Nickelodeon, Fresh Prince, Roseanne et al every night. She had a nightmare the other night, woke me and asked me to sleep with her a bit afterwards! Won't be all that many more of those, I imagine...:(

Yeah, I definitely get a 'ping' from Zac... poor Vanessa, she's going to be his beard at least until the 3rd one breaks...

Linda said...

LOL!

He's just too perfect, it makes me nervous...

His eyebrows... I've been getting mine threaded and shaped for years, and have not been able to achieve that level of precision.
