sippin' on gin 'n' juice

status check - exhausted
background ambiance - "best week ever" (loving the cable)

just caught dominick m. from "lotr" saying some of the lines to "ice ice baby." somewhat fitting, considering the recurring themes this weekend. one of which seems to be "classic" music from the childhoods of my flatmates (yes, i can say flatmates now - yay!) and i. i've played dj this weekend, spinning (well, clicking) memorable selections from naughty by nature, dre & snoop, digital underground, marky mark, ice, and of course salt 'n' pepa. got in my workout through dancing. yeah yeah.

but i turn on the tv tonight and see dear merry bustin' out ice lines. we've been rocking out all day today to a live track from the pete fellow as he covered "baby got back." (note: i'd been looking for his version of "gin & juice" to play for chuck. i find "30 down" with teases of "gin & juice" AND "baby got back." i was in heaven.)

so basically, everything old IS new again. and just as rollicking as ever. although it's scary to realize just how much of "whoomp! there it is" you can remember 10 years after you last heard it ...

and yes, elizabeth turned old this weekend. i can say that, as i'm still a young, vibrant 23. not archaic at 24 like OTHERS ...

good god, i should sleep.
