Thread Drift

Well, the emotional basket case that is me seems to have calmed down. I have no idea why I was/am so on edge these days. Maybe holiday stress? Although I don't really feel stressed.....yet!

X - thanks for the update on Jen, so good to know she's home.

Nanci - the Maizey story with the rat pup is still my favorite.

Chloe went into a mad rampage through the house last night. She went outside in the rain, so I had a wet dog flying up and down the hallway. Finally caught her and got her somewhat dried off, and she grabs her loofah dog. I swear she was dancing! Flipping the toy all over, prancing and bouncing. I wish I'd had a video of it.

I bought Yusef Islam's (Cat Stevens) new cd. I like it, very similar to his old work. I've always loved his voice.

Got to get moving, it's cookie baking weekend for me.

Thank you for the update, X!

Not making cookies or cooking anything today. Just bills and errands.

Pooey.

So wonderful to hear that Jennifer is doing so well!!

[Trek420]

Whew. go Jen!

I still say we start a fictitious thread or some kinda event here so when she gets back online there's really something going on in TE TD.

Maybe I'll take up raising snakes and turtles or...

Well, Ironman Kona is on TV, gotta go be inspired now. Hopefully not enough that I wanna tri that.

I'm gonna sit here watching it with my pet iguana, Precious. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Seattle Danskin, August 17 and 18.

It's two days? And what if I can't get iguana care?

[Xrayted]

Oh, the cookies are staring at me. Hellllllp!! We're heading out to the local comedy club tonight for a friend's b-day. I haven't been there in forever. Can't wait.

heh. Trek, BMo3 has been asking if there are any good stories she's missing. Like Nanci getting a new snake or anyone in any big events this w/e. I've had nothing major from TD to report to her. I have updated her on the humor thread though. (That's a good one going on over there. ) So, I say go for it. Give her something worthy to read when she gets back. I'm sure with this group of ladies, we won't even have to make something up. (I wonder if I have any more interesting pics I can post... )

Although, I have a feeling we will be hearing from her very soon...

[Trek420]

then we've better work fast and get all our stories straight.

I just took the iguana out for a walk (yes, she walks well on a leash!! ) and we encountered an unleashed chihauhua. Although I'm always nervous when I see an unleashed dog I figured, chihuahua....how bad can it be?

Precious and the tiny dog got along!!! Good lizzard.

Trek:
I had a chihuahua when I was young - it went both to kindergarten show N tell and to my bachelor's degree graduation.
I remember one it I was walking her through the cemetery next door. There a cattle farm and she ran up to the fence where the cattle where grazing and went "yip!". The cows promptly stampeded to other side of the field. she would also chase the neighbor's Afghan Hound around.
Jen/BM03 - Get well soon
I am crazy for thinking about doing the Circumnavigation of the Salton sea next weekend

Hi guys, thread drift - I need some lyrics. You're all such fabulous wordsmiths, maybe you can help me out? Remember Adam Sandler in that Wedding movie? He sang that song, "I wanna grow old with you". Well we're using it in our musical and we're adding an extra verse. (It's about an 80 year old couple looking back on their life.)

We added this part.

We’ve been together, for sixty years,
With laughter, and love, and sometimes tears
It’s been, so nice, growing old with you

I want you by my side, for as long as we live
Sharing these moments, we have so much to give
I’ve been so happy, growin’ old with you


And now I need one more set of the last part that follows this pattern (- this next part below are the actual lyrics - I just want you to see the pattern).

I’ll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold

Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control

I'm trying to find rhyming verbs that fit the song, as well as the 3rd sentence which sort of has to rhyme with the first 3 line set. (Does that make sense?)

I have the one below but I'm not happy with it. Maybe you have an idea of how to fix it, or a different idea altogether? (Remember, this is a family show. )

I’ll squeeze you
Tease you
Remind you, when you, forget your keys

I’ll swoon you
Spoon you
blah blah blah maybe - "open your door when we're out on a date" ? (but it doesn't rhyme with keys...)


Help!
