The 80's: Would someone please enlighten me?

What is the fascination with the 80's - you know, that decade a couple decades ago. The one that encouraged radical hairstyles, crazy music and strange clothing? There are 80's parties to go to, which always require 80's clothing - last time I wore a short denim skirt, leg warmers, and a polo shirt with the color up. Oh, and some hideous white jewelry. It was awful.

Today, I have been forced to face the 80's by Stefania over at City Mama, she is having an 80's contest. Feel free to flit on over and see if you can answer her questions, including ways to make the athletic folks on pee-chee folders look funny. Can't be too hard, with that woman swinging the tennis racket right over the two football players on top of each other! I think she mentioned something about prizes, could be fun. And spend some time there, Stefania has a great blog with recipes, pictures, and snarky thoughts on parenting....

Loving the public library!

I think I am in love with my library again....

My fondest memories were when I was but a young girl and I would go to the Los Altos Library after school and read Judy Blume books from the adult section. I loved my library then for providing me this unique (and salacious) opportunity.

Now, I love them libraries (Menlo Park and Redwood City) because I can stop in after dropping the kids off somewhere and get work done. That's right baby, FREE WIRELESS! Granted, it is probably bad for me, but it is so convenient to pop in, set up the laptop, answer a couple emails and then go pick up the kids.

Loving the Public Libraries!
