Little Red Corvette


Okay, I can't help it - every time I hear this song, I crack up.

Maybe it's because it's considered the horniest song ever written.
Maybe it's because Prince can hit higher notes than I can.

Maybe it's because my mom always tells me the story about how her youth pastor spent one Sunday School explaining how terrible the lyrics are.
Maybe it's because I really just want it to be about a Corvette.

Maybe it's just because it's a whacked out song.

Regardless, for one strange reason or another, I have heard this song EVERY DAY this week, not kidding.  I heard it for the first time while I was out shopping, and started laughing in the middle of the store.  Maybe that would be a tad bit embarrassing, but my life can be pretty awkward on a regular basis.  Also, I was have a tad bit of a crappy day, so hearing myself laugh was encouraging and uplifting, so I didn't even care.

Day two it pops up on the radio, and again I am laughing and reminded of how it turned my day around the day before.  Oh the random, strange joys of life!


By day three, I am feeling like quite the confused heathen because
1) I am laughing when this song plays, and its message it completely terrible.
2) What are the odds that this songs keeps playing?
3) And of course, it's during Holy Week... extra heathen.

Day four, I decide that this is too much of a crazy coincidence not to share with you all :)
Oh, Prince...

Random things I've been learning lately
  • Part of being an effective researcher is knowing when to sit in the pillow pile and read Goldilocks and the 3 Bears
  • Snowmobile helmets and crockpots belong in the same cupboard in the Springett household
  • Alli cries at EVERY TV show, "Swamp People" is no exception.
  • My mom knows who Adele is - YES!
  • You can tell if a couch back is made of real leather or just vinyl by whether or not there are seams on the back of the couch.  
  • Vinyl = one long sheet, Leather = seams from several hides.
  • If you need to be asleep by 10:30, don't live in a dorm room.
  • However, community bathrooms are helpful if you accidentally forgot your toothpaste.
  • Organs are not desirable wedding gifts.
  • Vicodin is larger than Ativan.

Something to add to the bucket list:
own a Corvette.
(an actual one, don't get any sick ideas)

Until Next Time,
Andi
