childhood

when i was a kid my mom had these tapes we would listen to to teach you things and build your self esteem and such. i enjoyed listening to them. i realized fairly quickly that most kids never listened to these tapes.

ok, i was watching tv. there is a new movie coming out with gob bluth where he is in prison.
i didn't think much of it until the end of the preview. there is this clip where he is sitting on the floor of his cell crying and his cell mate looks at him really annoyed. he then says this: "it's alright to cry. crying lets the sad out of you".

my head pops up when i hear this and i look at josh who gives me that blank stare i got so many other times when i told people about those tapes. what i want to know is this. how many of you know this quote/song?

I certainly remember that song. It was on a tape that had a whole collection of such things.

I also have the FULL collections of teaching songs about the scrubbits and such.


oh, and a bunch of the other songs too- I took them to make CD's out of them. DO you want a copy?

Nice memories.

I 'member too...I'm not sure any of them had the desired effect considering I don't cry, I don't have a very good self-esteem, I don't like to clean and I apparently have a lot of pent up rage.

no you miss undestood- I bought copies of all the scrubbits type tapes from goodwill (didn't come with the books though) and I've returned all the tapes from teh other stuff I just wanted them on CD.
