I totally have "Hush little baby.." stuck in in my head. My neighbor and his daughter were at the pool same time I was, and we walked back together. She had a little stuff heart that played it over and over and over and over.... Heh.
For all the time I spend in a swimsuit, and for all the people who
only
see me in a swimsuit, sorta weird talking to the neighbor wearing one. It's outside our frame of reference!
JESUS. I thought I was posting less, not posting from work very often.
I have had Alison Karuas singing "Down to the River to Pray" stuck in my head for 5 days now.

I've been stuck with Jason Mraz's live version of "Beautiful Mess."
There are far worse things with which to be earwormed.
Problem with the lullabye is I don't know the whole thing. Can't get past "diamond ring don't shine" so I start making things up and it gets really ridiculous. "...buy you a ball of twine. And if that ball of twine don't tie, mama's gonna buy you a great big pie. And if that great big pie tastes sour, mama's gonna buy you a pot of....flour." And it just gets worse. I once managed to get to cranky goat, but I'm not sure how.
Wow, that's better than I would do, sara!! (Somehow i always end up at "gonna buy you a ...diamond mine!" but then I don't know where to go from there. IF that mine don't....produce??)
I'm waiting for people to come by, sipping on an iffy attempt at a champagne cocktail. Substituting prosecco for champers doesn't bother me, but apparently there's a world-wide shortage of Angostura bitters? So I substituted Underberg because I could get my hands on it, and the resulting fizzy, herbal concoction is tasty. I'm just not sure it's what Rachel Maddow described as a champagne cocktail. As deprivations go, this really isn't. And I'm expecting to have a smonster and an amyth in my living room nowish, so life is good.
I owe it all to Dr. Seuss.
Isn't it "diamond ring turns glass" or something like that? Then, mama's gonna buy you a....big fat ass.
That can't be right.
I like this version better.
I've had OK Go's "This too shall pass" in my head the last few days. Probably because I've watched the videos umpteen many times.
