Studio 8

Today is Eight-Track Tape Day! 8-tracks weren't really around by the time I was born, as they were only popular in the 60's-70's. I do remember my father owning at least one of them, but I don't remember him ever having anything to play them on. It makes sense because 8-tracks were really popularized by their use in cars, and they were quickly replaced by cassette tapes. I DO remember listening to a lot of cassette tapes, and even buying a few of my own as a child. While cassettes did have a lot of problems, 8-tracks had more. So why do they get a holiday? Nostalgia. If you ever owned them, like I know my dad did, then remember the times that you did. If you still own a player, listen to them! Then tomorrow, go out and buy a newer radio. Or at least a walkman. Stop living in the past!

Back from Vacation

My family vacation to Florida was quite a fun time! We went to Disney World the first day, Universal Studios the second day, and we spent Christmas together at my dad's sister's (my aunt's) house. We played a game of picking and stealing presents (it has a name I just can't remember it at the moment), and I ended up with a starbucks mug that I stole from my dear mother. We went to the beach, played card games, went inside of a large christmas tree in a park, and told stories of what had been happening for the 8 years we hadn't gotten to see each other. All in all, a very fun vacation. I will be posting videos I recorded while I was over there to my fancy-schmancy YouTube account listed right here:
