Love & Hate

Love: That this is coming up on FRIDAY............


This group is amazing. They sing one of my fave Christmas tunes. I just might cry when they perform it.

Seriously.

Yeah, I'm excited.

I might even buy a t-shirt.

Hate: That Cracker Jack toys just aren't what they used to be.

No offense, Cracker Jack makers, but I liked the trinkety things from back in the olden days, like the little figurines or mini whistles.

Or the rings.

I'd take a tattoo even.

So when I opened my bag o' treats the other day with excited anticipation, I was pretty darn disappointed in this...........


No offense to Ben Franklin, but finding an educational leaflet puzzley thing wasn't exactly what my nostalgia filled heart was longing for.

I still love Cracker Jacks. They are mighty tasty.

Now I just know not to get my hopes up for a poodle figurine.

  1. It's CONCERT FRIDAY! Yippppeeeeee!!!! Don't be jealous that I'm seeing a WAY better concert though. Way.

    FYI, I've read that synthesizer-heavy music kind of makes you stupider. The whole of Siberia is basically brain dead. I think you should bring earplugs.

  2. Weellllll........if synthesizery music makes you brain dead, then COUNTRY music must make you, uh, um, brain deader.

    So HA!

    HA!

  3. If you ever find a Cracker Jack box that has a donkey watch inside... grab two boxes.

    *Word verification: Enesto... sounds like a guy you would meet in France (or perhaps BW)

  4. I wanted to see the Siberian's so bad but knew I would already be too brain-dead. Can you imagine what would have happened to my brain with all that synthecizer stuff. Plus, my feet hurt. Hope it was great! Jan
