Driving home from the train station, I was listening to XM 50’s on 5 and I heard Eydie Gorme singing Oba Oba. At first I thought she was singing Oh Bo, Bo Bo. This made me super happy because I kept picturing my little Bobo spinning around and dancing to the music. I tired to find a Rhapsody link but unfortunately Eydie’s version isn’t available but Astrud Gilberto’s version is….

I have a splitting headache. I think it’s from staring at a computer all day. When I got home, rather than get in front of my laptop, I decided to get in front of my TV. So I watched a stupid VH-1 countdown of the best teen idols. I was hooked by the promise of a Shaun Cassidy segment. During the commercial break, I saw an ad for Almay Smart Shade Makeup. Supposedly you rub this white cream into your face and it magically takes on the exact same shade as your skin! I can’t imagine that this could possibly work! And what if it did work? If the darn thing takes the color of my skin, wouldn’t that mean that it would also take on the discoloration that I am using the foundation to hide!?!? I don’t get it. Regardless, I am sure I’ll buy it just to give it a go. I am curious.
