oh, don't get that. oh well.
The Crying of Natter 49
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hee. I can still sing most of the Free to Be You and Me songs from memory. We had the record. I bought the DVD a few years ago because I didn't know it existed. I should get around to watching it one of these days.
I was gonna say TBS, but yeah, same answer.
I would so love to watch Free to Be You and Me again.
!!! I DO get TBS. awesome.
Woo hoo!
Also, Ellen Pompeo looks a little sturdier than she has, or am I crazy?
Crap. I just remembered I have to be at work an hour early for no apparent reason tomorrow. Bleh.
My mother worked before she married, after she married, and within months of popping me from her womb. The only breaks she took were because we moved countries and she had to get new grants for more research.
I read somewhere that Jamaica is one of the few countries in the world that valued girl babies over boys. Not sure about the veracity, but female breadwinners are completely and totally accepted, perhaps even more stereotypical than the man bringing home the bacon.
Oh, I love Free to Be. I have the DVD.
Weirdly, a friend has the CD of the songs, and on the incredibly-bizarre-to-the-modern-listener track of You Don't Have to Change At All, Michael Jackson's part is just gone.
I have no earthly idea where my SS card is. I've known the number by heart ever since I applied for college, but the card itself has vanished into the ether.
I actually still have mine, and know where it is. Which is incredibly out of character for me. My Canadian SIN card is long gone, and I don't know the number, so at some point it's going to take some doing to replace.
What I find interesting (and irksome) social commentary is that it states my father's profession, but there is no such box for my mother. There's more info on my dad on that form than there is on the woman who carried me. @@ 1975!
I've mentioned this here recently for some reason, but when I was born in 1970, my mother's (Canadian) citizenship did not transfer automatically to me, whereas if my father had been Canadian and I was born outside Canada, it would have been automatic. By the time my sister was born (1980) they'd stopped smoking that particular crack.
But on their marriage cert (Canada, late 60s), he's recorded as "divorcé" while she at 26 was registered as "spinster."

That's really cracktastic, because you can guarantee who gave birth to you, but your father? NSM.
