Bring on my childhood.

Not only has Malia deemed most of our days "opposite days" recently, (telling her Grandpa to "drive dangerously" as he left our house the other day), but I just got in the mail a VHS of Neverending Story I ordered off of ebay. I couldn't be more excited to watch it. I had to do a couple test runs of some snippets on You Tube to see if it is as magical and mystical as I remember, and I was sufficiently mesmerized. I don't know what it is about this story--and I've heard the book is much better, I'll have to read it with Malia in a few years--but I just remember thinking how celestial the ivory tower was and the journey he was on, even at a young age, I remember paralleling it with this journey here on earth. It's so deep to my little heart.

Pass the popcorn please.

P.S. Did you know it was a guy singing the opening song? I wish it would let me embed that music video. He had an impecible mullet.
