‘Flashdance’ Does Not Age Well…
Um Yeah, if you are in mind-veg mode, flipping around channels, while reading and tweeting and surfing the internet at the same time, and you come across Flashdance, and think,
“Flashdance! I loved Flashdance! ‘What a feeling!…’, I’m watching this!”
Do yourself a favor and flip the channel… or just turn off the TV. Those are minutes of your life you will never get back.
I’ll just remind you: Flashdance came out in 1983, yeah, 1983. Nothing from the ’80’s really ages well, especially from the-EARLY ’80s-Flock-of-Seagulls-kind-of-hair-era.
I know leg-warmers are coming back in style (God knows why?!),
but leg warmers weren’t that cool the 1st time around (and I was in a ballet company).
Again,
relax in the evening, watch a silly show, surf the internet, or better yet- read a BOOK 
Just don’t linger if you see Flashdance on TV… it really doesn’t age well.
The Cabin John Park System- Really is That Cool!
Looking for something to do? Just take a gander at The Montgomery Parks website!
I have lived here all my life and am still amazed by how many
Park Trails there are, (6 miles of trails in the Cabin John Regional Park ALONE),
There is SO MUCH right here to do For FREE!
Coming up? The Train at Cabin John has a ‘Not-so-Spooky’ train for little ones leading up to Halloween
And Montgomery County is opening its 5th Dog Park right now in Bethesda! Who Knew?
What prompted this post? We found a wonderful, kid-friendly trail, clearly marked, right off of Bradley Blvd. It’s part of the Cabin John trail system. It even tells you- 1.2 miles to River Road, 3.7 (or something like that) to Macarthur Blvd.
And the website IS fantastic- tells you EVERYTHING there is to do!
ENJOY!
Journey: Don’t Stop Believing!
Arnel Pineda on The Oprah Winfrey Show
That’s right. Don’t Stop Believin’
I have always loved Journey. There, I said it.
And now, I have another reason to love the longtime band- their new lead singer- Arnel Pineda!
This guy is a rags-to-riches story. Journey found him on YouTube. Are you kidding me? Notice I linked his name… He has a page on Wikipedia now !!!!!!! And he sounds just like Steve Perry… I love a good story!
Arnel, from the Philippines, grew up in poverty and basically sang for his supper, and now-
Arnel has breathed new life into Journey, they just released a new album, and they have now performed on Oprah.
Nice work, gentlemen! You’re done- the best is yet to come!
Praising The Effort! Why Didn’t I Think of That?
I am constantly reminded, thankfully, that motherhood is an evolution. It’s a constant learning process. Just when I think I have it mastered, a.k.a., ‘I know my child’, I am in a situation that surprises me, or he surprises me… Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I sometimes foolishly, on a particularly fantastic day, think that I have it all goin’ on.
And then I don’t. I have read so many parenting books, blogs, internet articles and parenting magazines that I sometimes, again foolishly, think there can’t be a parenting technique or philosophy, I don’t know about.
And then, Kindergarten began…
