Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious


Sorry I haven't been on in a while. I could say I was busy or needed a break or something, but honestly I think I've just been lazy. Summer does that to me ^_^

Anyway, now that we've had our recent cold snap, my brain has become less fuzzy and hopefully my posts will be consistant again ^_^

I watched Mary Poppins again for the first time in uncountable years. Julie Andrews is awesome. The reason I decided to see it again was because of her. See, I have the soundtrack for the musical Camelot featuring the original Broadway cast, and Julie Andrews played Guenevere in the show. I was listening to it again recently, and I felt the sudden urge to check-out from the library all the soundtracks for musicals that she's been in. I also felt the strange desire to watch Mary Poppins. Dick Van Dyke is awesome, too, even if he can't pull off a Cockney accent. Oh yeah, and apparently, he can sing. You almost miss it, what with the weird accent and the talk-singing, but it sneaks in on occasion. Like in this song.


My new theory: Mary Poppins really is magic, because neither Julie Andrews nor Dick Van Dyke really seem to have aged. It's like their hair just went grey and then that was it. Crazy.

P.S. This has got to be the most depressing and beautiful love song ever. Go Julie.


-Quotation of the Day-
Me: "I checked-out the My Fair Lady soundtrack."
Elderly-ish Co-worker: "Is it the version with Julie Andrews?"
Me: "Yes."
Elderly-ish Co-worker: "Good. It's such a shame they wouldn't cast her in the movie."
Me: "I know!"
-At work today- (should I be worried that I get along so well with elderly-ish women? ^_^)
