First Time Here? August 3, 2008

Hi! I’m Annette and this is Nostalgia Junkie, where I dump all my thoughts on all things nostalgic– mostly stuff from the 80s, but not necessarily. I’ve been doing this for just over a year now, and I plan to keep doing it for as long as I’ve got material to write about.

If you’re visiting for the first time, welcome! Here’s a little guide as to what goes on around here and a few recommendations from me, but feel free to go exploring on your own if you wish. Hell, I’m just glad you’re here!

Retro Wishlist

Obviously, I like old things, and I have a list of them that I’m always adding new items to. So this is basically an ongoing series of posts where I talk about things that I want to buy eventually. There are five installments so far:

Retro Wishlist I
Retro Wishlist II: The Revenge
Retro Wishlist III: The Search For Spock
Retro Wishlist IV: Big Fat Hairy Deal
Retro Wishlist V: That’s “Five”, Not “Vee”

Nostalgiathon 2008

In celebration of my first year of writing for NJ, I (attempted to) write a new post every day for one week. These are the results:

Nostalgiathon #1: More Thrift Store Adventures
Nostalgiathon #2: Grandmama
Nostalgiathon #3: Random Thoughts on a Few 80s Shows
Nostalgiathon #4: Random Thoughts on a Few 80s Toys
Nostalgiathon #5: Movie Intros Used to Be Awesome
Nostalgiathon #6: Transformers!
Nostalgiathon #7: Transformers (Cont.)

Movie Reviews

There are only four so far, but I plan to add more when the mood strikes me:

Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer
Poltergeist
The Little Mermaid
The Great Muppet Caper
