"I Don't Want to Live on the Moon"



A fellow assistant and bloggy friend posted this video in honor of Sesame Street's 40th birthday, which Google has been honoring all week. Anyways, I thought I'd repost this specific video because it was one of my favorites, and I think it rings especially true now. I am so so so glad I am visiting France, and even living here for a bit, but just like oysters aren't good enough of a family for Ernie, cheese and wine isn't enough for me either.

And then, because I can't get over the idea that I am in any capacity dating someone who hates Elmo, I am posting a video in which he is so cute and helpful. How can anyone not like this?!

    Kinz, I feel like that Grover and Elmo video is very similar to our relationship.

    I like that video a lot.

    First of all I would like to praise the folks at Sesame Street for not showing stars where the dark side of the moon is as is often done when showing a crescent moon, one of my pet peeves.

    Another one of my pet peeves: individuals who talk about themselves in the third person. Elmo I'm looking in your direction. Looking for a moment at this video though it stands out to me that Elmo is rather boring; he doesn't do anything more than read the alphabet. Grover is supplying all the comedy in this scene adn making it memorable. Furhtermore Elmo has that whole sickeningly cute-sy thing going on. BOOO ELMO!

    Elmo's okay, but Grover was the one who always had my heart. Those skits where he was a waiter? BRILLIANT!
