Why we NEED the 1980's

I have always been in love with the 80's. The music, the clothes and the stories my parents would tell me about when they were growing up as teenagers. I would always wish that I was born in the 80's because I am in love with the music especially and would always watch music videos from that time and wonder why we don't dress like them. There clothing was amazing and unique. I just remember watching the music videos of Madonna when she was younger and telling my mom I was going to dress like her for Halloween. How could you not want to wear those finger less gloves or go with the big hair. When I go through old photo albums I see pictures of my mom and how different she dressed than I do today. She would have the big hair going and tell me that she would go through a bottle of hair spray like it was nothing.

                                                                                                                                                       

If I were to dress like that today I might be looked at a little bit differently, but there are some comebacks from the 80's. Some pieces of clothing that are bringing back the 80's are the high waisted pants and shorts, the geometric jewelry, shoulder pads, leather jackets, leggings, over sized sweaters and hobo pants.

Having all these fashions come back into style is so exciting and I would love to bring back the 80's. All we need next is for the music to make a change in direction. Today all we have is rap and most of the music you can't even understand what they are saying or most of the song is all swears. With the music back in the 80's there is a story behind each song and he album is like a book. You have to listen to it all in order to get the whole picture. The other day I went to Barnes and Nobles and I say they are selling vinyl records and I can't wait to get one. I asked my parents to get me a record player and I will be complete.    

Lastly, I love the movies from the early 80's. My favorite movie of all times from this time period has to be The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo's Fire. I practically fall in love with them and wish I lived when they did. I should have been born in the 1980's!

Accidents at Hallmark

So last night I was working one of my regular shifts, but it was not one of my normal days. My co-worker and I were preparing for the next day because some of the company's owners were coming to check out our store and see how we were running. In preparing for the next day we had to clean the entire store and make sure everything was all clean. While in the process of cleaning the store my co-worker saw that a sign was a little bit lopsided and she wanted to fix it. When she decided to fix it I was kneeling down cleaning one of the shelves and then something fell next to my head and then all of a sudden something fell on top of my head. First I didn't know what happened, but realized I was hurt and bleeding. My first reaction was to run to the back and put some pressure on the cut. I thought it wasn't that bad and I would be alright but after I sat down I realized it was little worse than I thought. All I could do was laugh and my co-worker was frantic and told me that she had to call mall security. I didn't want her to make such big deal out of all of it and then when the mall security came and told me I better go to the hospital to make sure they could rule off any sign of concussion. Then the fire department came and then the police. I was so embarrassed and could not believe this was happening to me. I was then taken in the ambulance to the hospital and my mom came to pick me up. Only something like this would happen to me. Now it just shows to be careful at work and always watch out, even for falling wooden tree statues.
