Tonight I'm channelling my inner 80's chicky. I've just downloaded the song "I can fly" by Rainey. Those of you who are Bodyattackers will know this from one of the recent releases, remade by the Les Mills brigade. However, for those of us old enoough to remember, it was in a great little teen movie starring Sarah Jessica Parker called "Girls just wanna have fun". Anyone out there remember it besides me?
Anyway, I relived those wonderful teen moments the other week on Austar (Foxtel for the suburbanites), and O....M...G....I am still in love with the teen dude in that film. *****sigh******* Lee Montgomery. What a dish. He can dance too.
I'm having a bit of a dance thang at the moment. Here's a funny story for ya. I'm hassling my poor hubby about not being able to shake his booootaaay, like, well, Jon Bon Jovi. Here's when you know you watch WAAAYYY too many 80's videos - there's a bit in Livin' on a Prayer when Jon Bon shakes his........bon bon in the absolutely most divine way. If you've seen it often enough (and I have :D), you'll know the bit (hey, leave me a comment and let me know I'm not the only sad person out there whose spotted this piece of video magic....please!!). Anyway, I've been trying to get hubs to emulate this move for YEARS but he just can't quite get the movement right (personally I just don't think he's trying hard enough LOL). Oh well, we can't all be hair metal rock gods I guess.....dammit.
Off to Darwin tomorrow, hopefully might be able to update while I'm there. I'm a bit over travelling however at least this will be kinda new and hopefully a little on the exciting side.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Cheers
Carolyn :)

Mmmm girl, I know it, sorry to say. Have a great time in the Top End, ie Darwin, this is the best time of the year to be here. Essie
Since we ditched Foxtel a couple of years ago, I've barely seen a music video. Maybe I need to start turning the TV on Sunday mornings - does the ABC still show Rage?
LOL - 80s stuff probably isn't what I want to see though. 70s was more my style, but the videos were total crap...
Have a good trip!
Hey Carolyn,
Been following your Blog since I started my first 12 weeks on IBO, and have now started my own...Hubby and I just L-O-V-E the 80's music especially the film clips...he's currently loading up my Blackberry with Bon Jovi, Guns n Roses etc etc so I can listen during my workouts.
Anyway, I SOOOO know the bit in "Living on a Prayer" you're talking about, they play it a lot on a big screen at my gym, and I swear it doesn't matter where I am in the room, you can find me eyes glued to the screen for those amazing 5 seconds...hmmm
BTW, you are such an inspiration, that photo on your blog is awesome, I want a back like that...pretty please? LOL
Enjoy Darwin,
Sandra
Hi Carolyn,
Hopefully Carolyn the fitness chick has taken charge again by the time you read this.
I'm supposed to be working on a post for my much neglected blog, instead I'm sitting here commenting on all the blogs I read.
I'm almost down to under 100kg's so I am mega excited and training way hard. Hopefully, you'll be back on deck soon.
Big hugs
