movies:- license to drive (1988) coreys night! license to drive is majorly kick ass from start to finish & one of my favourite kinds of movie, the 'out all night' movie. the 80s did out all night movies so very well, best examples being ferris bueller's day off, sixteen candles, adventures in babysitting & this! when this month is up, i might have a mini marathon of the 2000s revival of the genre, inc. superbad and harold & kumar.
- the lost boys (1987) this was a major childhood favourite of my brother & i, and an early seed for my bunnymen obsession. their cover of 'people are strange' is featured during the opening scene & closing credits and a poster of jim morrison is also prominent in the vampire's cave, because, you know, vampires really dig on the doors. the scene with the chinese food traumatised me enough that i still picture my rice as maggots. best cast, this movie. the two coreys. alex winter (aka bill from bill & ted's). dianne wiest is so dianne wiesty as corey haim's mum, righteous, righteous babe she is. ed hermann plays her love interest & it was rather strange to watch him in the very different role of the grandpa on gilmore girls years later. the lost boys also taught me that barnsey has the power to kill vamps. very cool movie, fuck yo' modern vampires.
- married...with children (1987-97) season four, eps 11-12. a two part christmas special, the last two episodes that aired in the 80s. see the rest of you in february, old friend!
- full house (1987-95) season one, eps 19-20. wow, uncle jesse & his friends sure know how to have a good time. all cosy sweaters & constant sing-a-longs.
music:house cleaning music!
- psychic tv's allegory & self (1988).
- coil's scatology (1984).
- soft cell's non-stop erotic caberet (1981). i think that this is the most fitting album name in history.
- eggs, avocado & sundried tomatoes on wholemeal bread, with hot cross buns & a mocha.
- twinings english breakfast tea & homemade banana cake on my bodacious new noritake tea set given to me by a patient who was going to throw it out!
- veggie burger w/ avocado on a wholemeal roll.
- cola zooper dooper.

I kind of want to bring an old word back into my vocabulary. Hmm. Ooh, got it! Grody. As in 'Ew, that's grody'. Welcome back, old friend."
