A creature of habit.

I don't know what it is about me, but when I like something, I REALLY like something. When I get a new CD I listen to it nonstop (can't really remember the last time I actually bought a real-life CD, but you understand), if I feel like tuna fish I have tuna fish sandwiches for a whole month, if I'm in the mood for Mexican then it's burritos for dinner every night that week. So, my latest obsession is the single "I kissed a girl" by Katy Perry. I cannot get enough of this song, it's on my iPod nonstop. In fact this morning I listened to this song, and only this song, during my entire run. There's just something about it. When it plays I feel like Sarah Jessica Parker yelling to her overbearing Army General father..."I JUST WANT TO DANCE." Because that is exactly what this song makes me wanna do.

sounds a bit obsessive compulsive to me....or a bit like the girl (me) who went on a family trip to Wenatchee and ate a grilled cheese and root beer float for lunch and dinner for a week and knows every note and nuance in CK's Tapestry album having listened to it so many times. Scary how alike we are (smiling)

This could be the stalker side of me, but we have much in common.

PS - And we've met. Johnston nuptials 2004. I was the maid of honor that overheated.

Meg said...

Brooke, I totally know who you are. And I was watching you overheat hoping you'd fall over so I could impress everyone with my CPR skills. Of course, that's about all I remember from the Johnston's wedding.
PS Were you in Arbor Ridge this morning around 7am, windowless white van was cruising through the neighborhood...no joke.

Meg said...

Mom...CK's Tapestry?!?! You're such a giant dork.

I made Kip listen to 106.1 all day the other day waiting for that song to come on. And then I sang along badly. And I am SOO guilty of the obsession trick. I think I made Kip HATE mexican food and mac and cheese

no more of a dork than Hads is going to think you are for anything that you like at the moment. Remember when you said how sorry you were for your kids that when they got to HS and had decade dress up day they would have nothing wierd to wear for your decade??? Remember what you guys were wearing then?/case closed.

Meg said...

Yeah, but I will be less of a dork, because I probably won't STILL like Katy Perry. And what's wrong with tummy T's, saggin' jeans, Samba's, and a beeper...nothing to make fun of there.

PS: 10 bonus points to the first person to answer what movie I'm quoting!

Courtney said...

Girl's Just Want to Have Fun, a personal favorite of mine. Own the DVD, wanted to be SJ or Helen Hunt so badly! (still kinda do)...

Laurie said...

all I can add to this was that the first thing I thought of was "OMG Megan is exactly like her mother". And I should know seeing as how I lived with the woman for years. "Dad can I have $20.00?" x 365...

Zaide - don't forget the pickled vegetable diet either . . .

Sue said...

L-deen - it was $10.00 and eventually, only on Tuesday nights - please, inflation is bad enough!

Laurie said...

I stand corrected, it still was a LOT of money at the time!

zaideafraidey said...

Mary you are absolutley right, every Tuesday for a year and that $10.00 was mine...until I bragged about it at school and Johhny Eichoff stole it!!!(thank god his dad was the principal and I got it back, and then promptly deposited it in the bank where it is still probably safe and sound!!!) UGH I do remember the "pickled" diet lol.
