Those of you that know me, know that I love to sing. Am I good at it? ummm Not really, but I try my darnest! My favorite part in the movie My Best Friends Wedding is when Cameron Diaz is singing at the Karaoke bar and she is killing the song. "I just don't know what to do with myself." But in the end wins every over. They whoop it up and they cheer for her. That is how I feel...I am just there to win everyone over.
Well, New Years Eve at the home of Ranse and Shelly Gale is no exception. (Once I got Jeremy Goff off the microphone, I was home free.) LOUD AND PROUD is my motto. We rocked the house for several hours, playing along to Fleetwood Mack, Nirvana, Metallica and MANY others.
I have a new favorite song to sing along too...LIVIN ON A PRAYER by Bon Jovi! Now I am not a rocker chick. I have never been to a rock concert. I have never sported one of those rock shirts, that the 'rockers' wore in high school that proclaimed KISS or DEF LEPPARD or RATT as the best band. I am not a fan of 80's hair bands. I cannot stand hair that is not combed or brushed or looks like you just woke up 5 minutes ago. The only rock album I have ever had was a tape cassette of Quiet Riot that I bought in junior high at Florin Mall. You know that place that was right inside the main doors to the left ummm I think it was called The Warehouse. "Come on feel the noise, Girls rock your boys!" I think it was spelled cum though and noise was spelled with a 'z'. I don't wear a chain on my pants or a bracelet with spikes...BUT I CAN SING LIKE JON BON JOVI!!! I got a 93% on it. Next time look out though...I am bringin my cowboy hat and I will score a 99% just for wearing the hat. Heck I might even find me a shirt with BON JOVI on it. (I wear a large if any of you reading this find one.)
So how do you know when you have had too much Rock Star??? And I don't mean the drink either...Maybe, when it is around 1:00 in the morning. You turn to say something to little Ranse and instead of calling him Ranse, you call him 'FRANCE' and then you laugh like a HYENA for the next ohhhhh at least 5-10 minutes (yeah that's hard to believe) and you can't stop because you are tired and the tears are coming from laughing so hard and the cider was old and had chunks in it and you sang LIVIN ON A PRAYER loud and proud TOO MANY times, but people keep requesting it over and over again. And that's a FACT- not CRAP!
What's a girl to do???

Hey Kori, you said all the things I was gonna mention on my blog. Too funny! Ranse and Josh are still calling him France and laughing like idiots. I guess one thing you didn't mention was "white toast on a stick" or "missing chief" haha. I definitely think you got some of the chunky cider:) What time did you get up this morning? Or should I ask if David even went to bed. Ranse took care of Michael this morning and I didn't get out of bed until 1:00. Much needed sleep. Thanks for coming last night, we had a great time and look forward to the next concert. I am an 80's hair band junky, maybe we should make that a theme for the next party. Is this the longest comment you've ever had on your blog??? Later
I rocked it on the drums and Mariah wouldn't give up the mic. It must run in the family.
what a great fact to have and remember. did any of it get caught on tape?
That is SO funny! I think you were the same way at the last New Years party! The louder the better right! Sorry we missed it this year! I don't think you could ever loose your voice Kori! I've been to enough parties where you were the Kareoke SUPER STAR!!!(Church dances,etc...) Keep it up!(:
Go BIG or go HOME dude. You are a rock star. Way to go Tori. ha ha
