Ah, Snuffy. I watched Sesame right along with the kids. They had just enough adult humor to be appealing to all ages.
Did you read/hear about the Sesame Street anniversary on The Writer's Almanac today? I was fascinated to read about how methodical they were about mixing "the games" with learning opportunities. I was born in 1967 -- the first Sesame Street generation.
Also, I should tatoo that bit of Joseph Campbell wisdom on my forehead.
I like the Joseph Campbell quote too! I had SUCH plans, but the reality is much better I think!
Daisy's Barbara, probably Daisy too!
"the best laid plans..." :)
And yes..this Ohio fall weather is amazing!!
I get my daily dose of Sesame Street while babysitting my granddaughter...even at age 20 months she's a huge fan. That does look like Snuffy.
One of my facebook friends posted a vid of Kermit doing a rap. Have you seen it? Of course I thought of you.
I don't think I ever really had plans for life. It just sort of crept up on me.
