Limbo Land

If I were a dog I'd be good at this. Just living for the moment. But, as my many, many failings prove, I am not a dog.

[Hey! It's the Dog and Cat show on Prairie Home Companion right now!!!]

I'm waiting to hear my schedule from the hospital where I will be working. I only know that I won't be working on Monday (tomorrow), after that, it's any one's guess. I searched 'limbo' on youtube and came up with this:



I try to be of a generous nature. But, again I am not a dog, so I don't like what-his-name Hasselhoff, not one bit. In fact he makes me wish I hadn't just eaten. In some perverse twist of my psyche, I couldn't keep myself from playing this video for Bill. I posted it on my Facebook page. I kept the Youtube page up on my laptop in the kitchen and would click on it at will.

Bill and I started doing Hasselhoff Sexy Eyebrow Wiggles, and Come Hither Shoulder Jiggles at any opportunity.

Bill: Is the mail here yet?
Patience: Sexy Eyebrow Wiggle.

Patience: Should I pay the Discover Card bill, or did you?
Bill: Come Hither Shoulder Jiggles.

Bill expanded his repertoire to include the Hand To Ear Biceps Flex With Armpit Shot. That was my undoing. If Bill did a Sexy Eyebrow Wiggle, accompanied by a bonus Hand To Ear Biceps Flex With Armpit Shot, well, I would laugh so hard that I might, in theory, have to change my panties.

I've discovered that singing limbo songs - Chubby Checker does a mean Limbo Lower Now - is the best way to spend time in Limbo Land. Singing limbo songs is the second best mood elevator in the world. The first, of course, being watching whippets run. Or sleep. Or play. Or snuggle.

I can't share my whippets with y'all. So I shared the video. Hope it makes you smile. But don't view it on a full stomach.

And if you watch America's Got Talent, the whole time you're watching the above video, imagine three loud BUZZZZZZes and

Hahahahahahahhahahahahahah!

I've written a short story that I'm nervously happy with. I'd like to share it here, but it's about 2500 words and I'm worried that it is too long for blog land. What do you think?

hugs to you and your hounds
