I love The Muppets. Like really, really love The Muppets. It’s been a lifelong obsession, going back as far as I can remember. In fact, when I was potty trained, I got a Scooter doll (TMI?). For those of you who don’t know who Scooter is, here you go:
My love of The Muppets has caused me to spend varying amounts of money on things like DVDs, stickers, Band-Aids, nail polish, and for Christmas, I got Muppets Monopoly (which I have not opened. It sits, pristine as can be, in its wrapped box). When the new movie came out last fall (and I totally had not been counting down to it at all), I took the day off so I could go to the first showing possible. I wouldn’t say that I’ve spent a small fortune on Muppets paraphernalia but suffice it to say, I’ve spent enough.
(I’m starting to think that a line item in my personal budget needs to be “Muppets stuff” because Muppet items are too hard for me to resist. Everyone has her weakness. Is it wrong that mine is puppets? Anyway…)
I suppose, now that you know all of that, it’s not a surprise that my favorite video of all time is Weezer’s “Keep Fishing”. Not because the song is that amazing but because…well, watch and see:
Wow! I’m a huge Muppet fan. I loved the movie and right now am listening to the Muppets: The Green Album while I write. #awesome

I loved the Muppets as a child! I would always watch the Muppets christmas special, even when it wasn’t anywhere close to Christmas.

Oh my! The muppets always TERRIFIED me!! They don’t scare me anymore (you’d hope, right?), but it brings back memories….haha
The Swedish Chef will always be my favorite. Mork mork mork. The muppets crew is timeless like Barbie. Thank you Mr. Henson!
