Going Meme Again

Today's meme (courtesy of Yano) is 10 songs I'm embarrassed to admit I like. Since I am safely cloaked in anonymity, here's my list:

1. Love Will Keep Us Together (Can I get at least one smile for Captain and Tennille??)

2. If I Had Million Dollars (I laugh myself silly every time I hear it)

3. Invisibly Shaken (Rodney Atkins could sing the weather report and I would love him)

4. You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This (who COULD resist snappy lyrics like, "I see one candle burning in your eye...?")

5. I think I Love You (think David Cassidy)

6. I Will Survive (I drive very well when I sing this one)

7. Respect or Chain of Fools (Aretha in her prime)

8. Big Girls Don't Cry (Fergie NOT Frankie)

9. Second Chance (I know every.single.word. Ask my kids!)

10. How Firm a Foundation (the hymn, of course! One of the verses uses the phrase "hoary hairs," and thanks to my vast hymn knowledge, I knew what "hoary" meant when it showed up on an IQ test in 2nd or 3rd grade. So there!)

Your turn: what odd song do you love?

The Memes Continue

Today's meme comes from http://www.yanowhatimean.com/tuesday/ and the list is 10 things that make me feel old:

10. The mothers of the other second graders.
9. The people from my high school graduating class who have grandchildren.
8. Getting excited about "Fame" and having my kids ask if there really was another "Fame" movie.
7. A little too much gray here and there.
6. Going to a church where the music director is young enough that he doesn't really know many hymns.
5. Asking my students yesterday about something related to the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995 and having them respond, "Someone bombed Oklahoma?"
4. Realizing that the oldies station hasn't played any of my "old" songs in a long time.
3. Watching siblings and their spouses retire.
2. Sleeping with a sick child on his less than great mattress and not being able to stand up straight the next morning.
1. Having the doctor lecture me about cholesterol.

Now what about you??
