Every year for Chirstmas i ask for a Snoopy Calendar from my aunt. this past yeah, and the year before that the calendar has been a "happiness" calendar. you know, those books "Happiness Is..." well, each month i've been thinking about what happiness is. this month, according to the calendar, Happiness is watching an old movie. it just so happens that a few weeks ago i decided to make some changes about all the media i take in. so i've ruled out a lot of movies that my family owns. but last night my sister decided to watch Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. so i watched part of it last night and the last parts this morning. so that was my old movie for the month. and now i'm watching "Snoopy Come Home". my parents taped it whenever it came on sometime in the early 90s. i'm guessing 1993 or something because after this tape there's some christmas thing with Amy Grant, and i'm pretty sure it's from 1994. so maybe they showed this movie in '94. i really don't know. but it was a long time ago and you can tell from a lot of things. the commercials for one. they seem really cheesy now. and did you relize how boxy the trucks were? but they aren't as bad with content as the commercials are now. at least, not that i've seen. i think it'd be interesting to do a mass media study like that. and i just found out that KISS 99.3 FM used to be called Mix 99.3. that's very interesting.
so anyways, i love Snoopy. i share a birthday with him, which it probably the reason why i love the Peanuts comic so much. and now this year another reason to like those Peanuts is because i'm allergic to the food peanuts. so at least i'm not allergic to the Peanuts comic! that'd be very weird. so i'll have to see what the happiness thing is next month.
