too busy singin' to put anybody down
Dear Little Girl,
Where are your parents. You are about as big as a very aerodynamic toothbrush, wearing an entirely too skimpy Princess Jasmine costume in forty degree weather, and walking around by yourself after dark. That is like the beginning of a horrifying episode of CSI, and, oh dear god don't talk to the sleazy group of older boys on the corner. They have masks, baby Jasmine, and hockey sticks.
Yours in heart-stopping terror,
Mel
God, Halloween is so nerve wracking. A group of high school boys followed me home from the library this afternoon, and they were all wearing horrible, blank masks and big black hoodies and they didn't talk the entire time! I have never been more grateful for the fact that my messenger bag is damn heavy. I swear I was about three seconds from whipping out my red pen and trying to scare them off with grammar.
Anyway, I was trying to nap earlier, and as is my wont, I was eating crackers and drinking apple cider and listening to my last.fm to prepare (naps take so much effort, seriously) and, lo, it was soothing. Then The Monkees came on and I pretty much felt five years old all over again. So I want to know, mighty flist: what takes you back. A song you listened to, a certain food you ate all the time, a specific movie or actor you had a crush on - maybe even a distinct scent that reminds you of your mom lighting candles during dinner. What makes you feel five years old?
Last Train To Clarksville
I'm A Believer
Hey Hey We're The Monkees

So is watching early Disney -- the Black Cauldron, Sleeping Beauty -- and listening to the Beatles.
Mah daddy wanted me exposed to good bands when I was in the shell, as it were. I think was six or seven before I heard popular music not from ten or more years before I was born, and that was Michael Jackson, the album with Thriller. One of the really weird things about watching Supernatural is that these are all the songs I know, love, and grew up on, and most of them are older than I am. When I talked to my 22 year old cousin about the show she was all "that old foggey music?" and I think my jaw reached China.

My favourite was called "I'm a pro at loving," and I knew the lyrics by heart (don't worry, the scars faded with time):
"BUT THERE ARE THINGS I DO THAT NO OTHER MAN
WOULD HAVE THE STAMINA TO DO
TWISTS AND TURNS NO ONE ELSE KNOWS
COME HOME TO ME AND YOU'LL SEE"*
IT'S *~ART~*

... but yeah, as for music Sharon Lois and Bram (bragm?) were all I knew back then. But "one a'clock two a'clock three o'clock rock" was a favoute. No idea who did that.
