I got this for my dad like when I was in elementary school or something at like the father's day sale, why there was ever a California Raisins figurines music playing sandwich I do not know, and why I thought to get it for my dad is more puzzling. But it is something I have always loved. He used to have it in his office at work and I remember going to his office and pressing the button and hearing the music. it is now in the office in the basement and everytime I go down there I listen to it. It is like the most random thing ever but I love it.

Final ThreeI can't believe this is my final three days at my parents house before I move on Friday. Pretty much everything is packed, today I packed like all the stuff on the walls and stuff that I was keeping out til the end like some pictures and my funeral prayer cards and my color changing chameleons and such. The only things left out now are Fuzzy Wuzzy my bear and the graduation card my nonna was writing to me when she had her stroke. Those I will just pick up and care with me. I need those out and with me until the end. I really can't imagine what life is like outside of this house. It seems unreal . I know its ridiculous becuase I am almost 28 but I can't imagine what my life will be like not here how it's always been.
Also, my 10 year high school reunion this weekend and my birthday in a week from Wednesday. So much stuff going on. Its weird, I really thought I would be more excited about my 10 year reunion. Like I am glad I"m going but I wouldn't say i'm super excited. I always thought I would be way more excited. maybe it is because I have the whole moving thing on my mind . I also think it is kinda b/c of facebook. I basically know what anyone I wanted to know about has been doing and even many people I didn't really care about. I feel like the reunion would be to see what people are up to and what they are like 10 years later but I already know that about a lot of them. I'm sure it will still be fun. I'm sure it will still be me , jill,mk , jesse and maureen sitting at our own table , living in our own world as always. That itself would still be fun to me!

Oh that card. When do you let go of it? Are your descendents going to tell the story?

I seriously have no idea what my high school mates are doing, or even what my college or former grad school mates are doing. I don't know what is more disturbing... that I don't keep in touch with anyone or that I couldn't care less.

I just read this again and it made me remember how awesome the Mother's Day and Father's Day sales were at Roosevelt (and probably Christmas too?) I remember when I got to middle school and wondered how I was going to by presents for anyone. I wish I was joking.
Those raisins are so weird. I am constantly amazed that you can never get video in the right direction.
Hahah i love this. I miss the California raisins and their sweet commercials.
They where great but didn't know they made stuff like this....
Sounds like one of those greeting cards that sing. But they are capable of mp3 clips nowadays. When did you get this?
