So 13
I just finished watching 13 Going On 30. So cute. And so appropriate since I’ve been told on more than one occasion that I’m a 13 yr old trapped in a 30 yr old’s body. Maybe it appealed to me because she was 13 in the 80’s like I was. I was looking on the official site trying to find a photo from the movie (I’ll explain that in a minute) and they have the M.A.S.H. game on there. Remember that game? I plugged in some boys names and colors etc. just for fun and you’ll never believe what it spit out!!
You are destined to live in a Mansion in SC.
You will marry Jon and raise 3 kids.
You will work as an artist and drive a pink RAV4.Holy smokes. The pink things are what I plugged in. I do live in SC, not in a mansion, but my friend Lisa calls it a mansion. I married Jon, 3 is my lucky number (born and married on the 3rd day of the month) and since we’re adopting I can pick the number of kids to have, I do drive a RAV4, albeit silver- not pink, and if it were up to me I’d make money as an artist instead of just dabbling in all my arty crafts. Spooky. Go try it out!
So anyway, the reason I went to the site in the first place. There’s a scene in the movie where everyone breaks out into a synchronized dance to Thriller by Michael Jackson, just like they dance in the video. I know this may sound silly, but I’ve always wanted a dance. One that at any given party me and my friends can just bust out with it. The Electric Slide doesn’t count- everyone knows it and it’s not cool to do outside of a wedding. But have you ever been somewhere and a couple of people just break out into dancing in synch? A couple of girls did it at my wedding to The Devil Went Down to Georgia. So jealous. I don’t have much rhythm but I’m a quick learner if anyone wants to be my choreographer!

Glad you enjoyed the movie! I remember the Mash Game. It was fun! Your results are scary and I too wish I could dance better!

Oh my, I don’t know if I’ve ever had someone say “long time lurker first time commenter”. I feel like a radio program! You didn’t leave your name though, so Anonymous- no they weren’t bar girls at Coyote. They’ve just known each other for a long time and came up with the dance at camp or something. Thanks for stopping by!

I’ve been wanting to watch that movie…Shanny, I know Empire Records is one of your favorite movies…I think I watched because I read how much you like it. I hesitate to say I didn’t really care for it for fear I will make you my life-long enemy, but…I didn’t really care for it all that much. Eeek, sorry. Anyway, my point is that I’m gonna remember to rent 13 Going On 30 because you say it’s cute and I hope I’m not disappointed. (Not that it’d mean a whole lot if I am.) Thanks for sharing!

I hope you like 13 going on 30 Elaine. It’s not a life changing, Oscar contender, but it was harmless entertainment and I liked all the 80’s references.
Sorry you didn’t like Empire Records, but I’m more sorry that you seemed scared to tell me that! I don’t mind if people disagree with me! Everyone has different tastes! It would be a boring world if we all only liked the same movies. I haven’t seen it in a while, I wonder if I’d like it as much now as I did then. You never know. My taste in movies runs from what my husband calls “those critical successes” to fluff teen movies. You’re not my enemy for life! I hope I don’t have any enemies!

I love “fluffy teen movies” too. I also like what some might call “chick flicks.” I will pay to see a comedy in the theater, but only occasionally a drama, except for “Titanic,” but everybody paid to see that. It’s not that I was afraid to tell you, I knew you’d understand, it’s just that, I don’t know, you seemed to like the movie so much, I didn’t want to rain on your parade, so to speak. But this movie is definitely on my to see list.
