I know I've probably said this before, but I'm saying it again: I LOVE Netflix Watch Instantly. I think it's the greatest thing ever. At least it's up there. This outpouring of love for Netflix comes from the fact that I am currently watching Muppets Take Manhattan after a long and busy week.
This movie is the perfect way for me to spend my Friday night. First of all, because I was trying to sing this song to Jamie the other night, but only remembered the "he'll make me happy" line.
Now I can torture him with more of my Miss Piggy impression. Secondly, because it's the stuff of good memories. It really takes me back to my childhood when (I hear) I watched this movie very frequently -- I'm sure my brother could confirm or deny this statement. My family might exagerrate and say I watched it nightly, but I think I probably watched Star Wars or The Neverending Story (or maybe Sound of Music) more. Of course, my memories of watching these movies all blend together into one memory of sitting on my parent's bedroom floor (with a pink carpet by the way) and getting out the Beta Max tapes. Good times.
P.S. This movie is way funnier as an adult. I'm actually getting the jokes! That blonde muppet (Janice?) cracks me up. Also, the "Saying Goodbye" song is breaking my heart right now.

haha! oh, Melissa, how I love you.... :-P
this post is awesome.
:) Glad you enjoyed it!
Star Wars? Neverending Story? Oh puhleeze.
You have seen this movie HUNDREDS of times. Not a hundred times. Multiples of hundreds of times. Every day, for months and months and months and months.
Because of you, the lyrics are scorched into my brain, and will be until I die. Here, I'll prove it:
He'll make me happy,
Each time I see him,
He'll be the rea-son,
My heart can sing,
He'll stand beside me,
And I'll have everything.
I could go on.
HA! Not even Sound of Music??
This is just another example of why we are BEST FRIENDS.
Yipee!! Run for it, Marty!
