To BeeGee? or Not to BeeGee?

 

That is the question that I struggle with each time I visit Netflix lately …

I know that I’m in a very small minority of the population who has fond memories of this movie. I’ve never met anyone else who liked it. See, I haven’t watched it since it came out, in 1978.  I was 8 then. Now Maddie is right about that age, and she seems to be getting into musicals …

so I just naturally thought …

But then, I’m afraid that once I watch it again, it will be all over. I’ll have to concede to all those who I have ever defended the movie to that it did, in fact, suck ass.

Is it worth the risk? I just don’t know.

Angry tears

Whenever I get really, really, angry … I start crying.

I hate it.

There I am, all full of fury and indignation, and all I want is to melt the object of that fury with the hot heat coming out of my eyes. But, when I go to speak … there’s that crack in my voice.

And then the sniffles.

And before I can get all the way through whatever biting accusation I’m working on at the time, those full-fledged, heaving tears have started.

And the effect is ruined.

And the person who was supposed to be squirming from shame is instead looking at me, concerned. Moving into comfort mode. And that just pisses me off more!

So I cry even harder!

And so nobody ever really gets how truly fierce I am …

I hate it.

What color is my car?

I placed my order for my Mini Cooper a couple of weeks ago, and they tell me I should have it by mid-August. Woohoo! I’m really looking forward to its arrival.

In the meantime, Jon and I can’t seem to agree on what color it is. More than that, we can’t agree on what color family my car is in. So, I’m asking for some help here. I will not tell you what color I think it is, or what color he thinks it is, lest you become influenced in favor of one or the other of us (I know how much men like to stick together in their wrongness). I simply submit to you this picture:

Now, you tell me … which color comes closest to my car? The one on the top, the one in the middle, or the one on the bottom?
