Welcome to 2007. . .

Thanks to Steph, this is my week-long motto. I encourage you all to look around and see some of the things that might make you question what year you're in (clothing styles, electronics, hairstyles are all good starting points) and then simply say to yourself 'Welcome to 2007'. It's a pretty fun game and it gets addicting. Here's my list for this week, to start:

I bought an iPod. . . the day the iPhone came out. Accident? Nope. Ironic? Yes. Welcome to 2007.

Birkernstocks + socks does not a cool outfit make. Welcome to 2007.

Birkenstocks + socks + Spandex leggings with stirrups do not a cool outfit make. Welcome to 2007. (in case you are wondering, the previous two lines are two separate violations on two separate people in one single day- I wasn't just making the situation worse.)

Watching several episodes of Saved by the Bell and realizing that maybe Kelly Kapowski isn't quite as cool as you originally thought, is a life-altering moment. Welcome to 2007.

Paula Abdul has a reality show? (more to come on this little gem). Welcome to 2007.

That ought to do for now. If you see anything that takes you back. . . way back, feel free to add it!

This is actually from Melissa. . . who doesn't have a blogger account so I'm posting it for her!

Holy cow… I can’t believe I am doing this. I love to read these blogs, but responding and getting into this just stresses me out!

But I guess I have finally broken through… If fact I did think to myself “Welcome to 2007” the era of electronics.

As for this genius game… I love it!! In fact last night we were at the Derby, and this game definitely would have been great and kept our mind off the awful heat because we never would have stopped saying it.

So let me just add..

*Redneck with overall shorts (no shirt underneath mind you) high wool socks and boots… “Welcome to 2007”

*Mullet Man with a cut off tee that says, “I learned how to kiss… from your mom” Classy… Although I do admit it made me chuckle! But… “Welcome to 2007”

I seriously love this game! I just hope I don’t over do it like people did with the whole sike thing! ... Sike!
