One of my very favorite movies of ALL time was on TV last night . . . "Can't Buy Me Love"! I can't even tell you how excited I was to see that it was going to be on. I recorded it and when the kids went to bed, I watched it. Jason moussed in about half way through, and I think he liked it too. I think this movie takes a close 2nd to the movie I've watched the most in my lifetime (the 1st is "The Little Mermaid", my sister Kate and I watched it everyday one summer). It has the best lines in it (which I recited daily in high school) and the star of the show is Patrick Dempsy. I wanted to be just like Cindy Mancini and drive a white VW rabbit when I was younger! It really is a classic. Some of my favorite lines are:
- Oh, cards with the tards. Who could beat a night of cards, chips, dips and dorks?
- Something stinks in suburbia!
- . . . she gives more rides than Greyhound!
- You S#*t on my house!
- He went from totally geek to totally chic!
- Look . . . it's a nerd herd!
And, of course the famous African Anteating Ritual Dance . . .

Love that movie! Jess and I watched a ton in like 5th grade I think! Love all the hairstyles and clothes! So 80's! LOVE IT!
I own it!!! And yes this is the early days of McDreamy. . .
I watched it everyday for a summer when I was a kid. I absolutely loved Cindy, and that white outfit she spilled on. I think McDreamy rocks!
Ha! Can't Buy Me Love. Why did she want to wear that white leather dress anyway? Hideous! And McDreamy has gotten much cuter with time, no?
LOVE THIS MOVIE. I never knew you were a mermaid fan. Now I know why we are friends.
all I have to say is that I miss ya! you seriously crack me up. hey and I love the little mermaid too, I use to draw pictures of her all the time! anyways, I know you already wrote to me once about how to make the jewlery board, but now I am serious about it. Is there somewhere you found to make it that has like step by step instructions? I am crafty handicapped. speaking of how is the foot, sorry about not getting the boot. hopefully soon. this is long, oh well! later!
I too love this movie. I would say I loved her white Convertible Rabbit...ever since I have always wanted one of those. I own the VHS but haven't watched it forever. Maybe I need to bust it out one of these days. Great Memory!
