Sign #1: The other day, you saw the Harvard baseball players lip-synching to Call Me Maybe on the Today show. When you watch the viral video on YouTube, your 7-year-old thinks it's SO funny that Mommy is watching that. She's known the song for months.
Sign #2: You think the guys are cute but what most excites you is that their YouTube channel supports Friends of Jaclyn Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to improving the lives of kids with brain tumors.
Sign #3: You start fantasizing about organizing a dance flash mob to the song. On your commuter train.
Oh, I forgot sign #4: You're blogging at 9:22 on a Saturday night.
ReplyDeleteWant to feel really old? That girl was signed by Justin Beiber. Yeah, that's old.
ReplyDeleteAnd sigh, young, hunky baseball players? Set to cheesy pop music? Yes, please.
I like #4 the best!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking there should be something in there about the secret, or not so secret, joy I get in embarrassing my children (mostly at home) by thinking I'm all that when I sing the newest (to me) discovered cool song. I'm pretty sure I killed "I'm sexy and I know it" for my teenager.
ReplyDeleteAnd I"m thinking 9:30 is impressively late to even be awake.
Just have to tell you I think I just lost nearly an hour of my life just now watching all the odes to Harvard Baseball's video..
ReplyDeleteAnd I now know the song very well.
flah mob: totally rad idea dewd.
Ellen. You forgot the one that really makes you old:
ReplyDeleteYou watch this and all you can think is "BOYS, put on your FRIGGIN SEAT BELTS!!!!"
Thanks, I needed that! Been a rough week, our son has pneumonia and we received bad news concerning matters of the heart. :( Keep the funny comin'.....
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear that; I hope your son is on the mend.
ReplyDeleteAnon, you are so right, how could I have not noted the lack of seatbelts? Clearly that is a sign I am not really old!
Jenny, I watched all the other lip-synch videos to that song—Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, etc. So we will have to find some way to get those hours of our lives back.
I just watched the video again.
ReplyDeleteI keep watching the video, trying to figure out who I think is the cutest (boy with sunglasses). Then I realize I'm old enough to be his mom
