You're A Big Hit

-
My friend Stiffy sent me this link to a web site that will tell you the number one song on the day you were born: http://www.joshhosler.biz/NumberOneInHistory/SelectMonth.htm.

Mine is "I Get Around" by the Beach Boys.

Round, round, get around, I get a round waist from sitting in the car for 4 hours a day.

Yes, that's my song.

I was hopping for a Beatle or a Beachboy or someboday like that....but mine is;
"Theme from a Summer Place" by Percy Faith
I thought I had never heard of it until I listened on U-tube, it's a common tune usually played by an orchestra. Really pretty, so I am not so bumbed.
Ellie, I think it was a movie, racking my brain here...but it WAS sung by the Flying Nun!

Thank you for stopping by and for the mention of the 80's photo Dykewife! My sister had wrist surgery but it was for a break. She took a spill on some ice.

Oh Ms Creek - I thought you meant the Flying Nun (Sally Field). LOL. Thanks for the youtube link so I could figure this out.

I like that song Rubye Jean! That was played in the movie Animal House I think while they were in the supermarket stealing meat. Really, I'm not making that up.

We Can Work It Out - The Beatles

I must say I liked all of the songs for the first four decades and it would make a fabulous CD!

Hi Inidigo - thanks for visiting! I think it's interesting to see the references to all these songs, most of which I have heard, but none that I can really pin down what year they would have been popular.

Hey Shrinky - Inquiring minds want to know.

Paper Strips. I Don't.

You know what's a pain in the ass? Shredding bills and bank statements.  It's time consuming, it's messy, and one box of paper creates three trash bags full of 1.5 inch X .3 inch paper strips. I want my bills to now be sent on cheese. That way when I shred them, I can at least at do something with the by-product. Put it on a sandwich, throw it on some pasta, toss it on top of some corn chips - all of which is better than trying to shove 20 pounds of paper into a trash bag meant to hold no more than 10 pounds. Great nachos CJ! Why thank you. That's my electric bill you are eating. I shred everything. Cable bill? Shred that bad boy. Don't need anyone seeing what extras I rented (don't judge!). Phone bills? What if someone finds my itemized statement and starts crank calling my relatives? Shred it too! Retirement statements? No one has to know I need to work for another 70 years. Shred, shred, shred! Amazon receipts? Ohhhh no. None of your bees wax. Yes, I

Embarrassing Work Moment # 94

I peed on my pants leg today at work. I'm a squatter. I know sitting on a public toilet will probably not bring me irreparable harm, but it just skeeves me to no end. Hovering can be tricky business however - one rogue stream as I had today and you've got yourself a pair of pee pee pants. Luckily this happened at the end of the day. It did prolong my day however, as I wanted to sit at my desk for a bit, hoping the spot would fade prior to my leaving the building. And, as it turns out, it was a particularly crowded day on the campus, with students moving in for the fall semester. Hopefully no one noticed as I quickly walked behind the buildings to the parking lot, glancing behind and down as I walked to make sure the offending spot was not standing out too much. Maybe I should keep a spare pair of pants in my office from now on.
