Sometimes we watch the show How It's Made on Discovery. It's pretty cool most of the time. Last night one of the segments was about "sanitary napkins." It was weird. But interesting. They even gave instructions for how to use them...personally, I think it's pretty self-explanatory! But it cracked me up. Is it appropriate to talk about this on a blog? Oh well, I just did!

Last night we were hanging out with my friend Christina. She wanted to go to Best Buy to get the Iron Man DVD that just came out. While we were there, we also looked at all the awesome Disney movies that are currently available (does anyone else have a problem with the "Disney Vault"? Because I think it's dumb that they lock away their movies and then charge so much for them when they finally release them again for a short time!) and I just couldn't resist buying one of my favorite movies I used to watch as a girl -- Bedknobs and Broomsticks with the fabulous Angela Lansbury (also the voice of Mrs. Potts of Beauty and the Beast) and David Tomlinson (Mr. Banks on Mary Poppins)! Awesome. And it was one of the cheaper Disney movies. I watched it last night, too. Husband thinks it's ridiculous, but I love it.
Did you know it was based on a book? From what I remember, it isn't much like the book, but they're both good. In 4th grade I did one of my book reports on it (we had to do one every couple of weeks). If we made some sort of visual aid, we got extra points. I made a bed and painted one of the knobs yellow instead of brown. It was a pretty amazing bed, if I do say so myself.

A few months ago I blogged about how I kept hitting my head on stuff. I am pleased to say that I am recovered from that disease now, but it must be contagious, because Husband's got it! He's hit his head at least 3 times in the last 3 days. Since he laughed at me, I feel justified laughing at him. That's wrong of me, very wrong. I'll be nice now. But it is pretty funny!

There are a lot of links in this post. Sorry.

I am so with you on the Disney vault. Lame, very lame.
Joe and I watch how it's made too. Glad to know someone else watched it on occasion. We watched one on how they make sinks. LOL! I think pioneers would laugh at us if they saw the things we watch. I TOTALLY agree with you about the Disney vault! They want us to buy them BUT only when they want us to have them. One word....STUPID! I do think that it is fun that our kids will watch the same movies we did though. I am glad that you are not hitting yourself in the head anymore. :)
