Well, I actually took time tonight to play! I made 13 Christmas cards tonight! Tom and I have also had fun tonight reminiscing - watching 80's music videos on yahoo! Think Genesis, Janet Jackson, Lionel Richie, The Fixx (think "Save by Zero"). That last one is actually what sparked the trip down 80's Memory Lane. We realized that they are targeting us "30 somethings" in that truck commercial. Man, makes you feel old! What I think is really funny is that Tom knows the words to just about every song made in the 80's and early 90's. He can rap with the best of them - a real life Marky Mark! I didn't listen to a lot of the early rap unless it was one of those cross over songs like when Run DMC did the song with Aerosmith - Walk This Way...
OK, so who remembers waiting up late on Friday nights to watch Friday Night Videos (since our parents weren't nice enough to get us that new thing called CABLE)!
So last weekend we took Bailey to her first movie on the big screen! She got to see Madagascar 2 and loved it. She sat still through the first hour. Then we had to walk up and down the stairs for about 20 minutes and she watched the last 15 minutes or so sitting quietly in my lap again. She really enjoyed it!
I had a request to update you all on the failing project that took over about two months ago. Well, it has taken a lot of long meetings and a lot of hard work, but we have gotten it back on track with revised requirements, revised scope and realistic expectations of what will be ready when. It has really been a team effort - couldn't have done it alone, that is for sure! Of course we present our new plan to the executives next week, so we will see if they agree to the track we are taking!
So I am going to try to find a picture of me that personifies the 80's for me. Maybe I will share!
