Like Columbus I'm Traveling

Happy Monday, all!

And happy Columbus Day!

Hmm...I'm not sure what we're supposed to actually DO on Columbus Day (Besides, "Yay, Western Hemisphere!")  but I am at least guest blogging at The Hot Pink Typewriter blog! LOL

Stop on by.
I'm talking about the Best and Worst of Writing.


Have a GREAT week!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh, and PS. I now will have a newsletter a few times a year.
Basically, for new release announcements, recipes etc..
However...
I will also do special secret giveaways for newsletter subscribers ONLY.
Oooh....

So what are you waiting for?




Also, I just found out that Amazon has lowered the price of
GEORGIE ON HIS MIND (this book came before Kissing Kendall).
It's now only 99 cents this week!

Grab it while you can!

Columbus Day and The Worst of the 80's



It's Columbus Day! (Meaning no school and very little computer time for me)

Oh, yeah, and Christopher Columbus discovered The New World.

But I digress...


Anyhew...I don't know about you but I LOVE 80's music. It's happy and cheesy.
Like me.
So of course when I heard Rolling Stone magazine did a Top Ten Worst Eighties songs list, I was right on that.

In case you are as interested as I was, I have the list here:

1."We Built This City” by Starship
2.“The Final Countdown,” by Europe
3.“The Lady in Red” by Chris de Burgh
4. Wham! — “Wake Me Up (Before You Go Go)”
5. Men Without Hats — “The Safety Dance”
6. Falco — “Rock Me Amadeus”
7. Bobby McFerrin — “Don’t Worry Be Happy”
8. Toni Basil — “Mickey”
9. Taco — “Puttin’ On the Ritz”
10. Rick Astley — “Never Gonna Give You Up”

Yeah, um, "We Built This City" was pretty bad, although the video made it much much MUCH worst. And, hey! I LIKE "Safety Dance".

Personally, I would have put Night Ranger's "Sister Christian" on that list and possibly anything by Billy Ocean. :-)

Just sayin'.

So now I'm off to do some more plotting, get a pedicure, and entertain the kiddo. If you're off today, too, enjoy!

Do you like 80's music? What is the worst 80's song you can think of?
