When I picked up untitledson from Montessori the other day, his teacher told me that he loved watching the movie “Snow White” during nap time when the other children sleep.
This is no surprise to me. He loves anything on TV. He’d watch a “Judge Judy” marathon if given the opportunity. But what I wouldn’t give to curl up on his little blue mesh cot and catch a few winks, and he’s just frittering it all away. Oh, the folly of youth.
He loves the “Hi Ho” song as sung by the seven dwarves. In particular, he enjoys the part when they hold the “ho,” as in “Hi HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” So I asked him, “Can you sing me the ‘Hi Ho’ song?” He did so, but in his version, the words are “My Hole.” Or more like “My HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLE!” So in context, it goes like this: “My hole. My hole. It’s off to work we go.”
I always knew those damn dwarves were up to no good. It just goes to prove my theory — never trust a man wearing a tunic (or one that lives in the woods with six other men, for that matter). I must remember not to laugh at untitledson. It’s not his fault. He springs from the loins of a man I caught singing along with Stevie Nicks using the words “Just like a one-winged dove.”
Ahh…My sister used to belt out Michael Jackson’s “You bring the cheese, ’cause that’s what I love” instead of its more common title…Billy Jean.
I hope you are writing these pearls that untitledson is dropping for you; I really regret that I haven’t done that for either of my boys. Although I may start soon, since 14 Year Old said, swallowing hard and on the verge of tears, “Mom, I think…I…may be…in love. But I don’t want to scare her off.”
At summer camp where I was a counselor one of my kids in my care loved the Lion King disney movie. The kid had interepreted the opening song which is sung in Swahili or something into english as follows:
“Aye! Some Guy! I got an itch in my balls!”
When I heard the song at a later point he really was quite close, I don’t have a kids yet myself, but I think their carefree expressions are very cute.
Good for you lady, I admire your resolve to prepare for your upcoming surgery. I like the new website design as well, very sleek.
Do you mean she’s not singing “just like a one winged dove”? oh shit.
Love it!
I always thought that Disney guy was a dark character.
I knew there was something dirty about seven men and one woman living together. I mean, come on, even dwarves get horny, no?
Hey! De-lurking, again, to let you know I really like the new design! very pretty!!
Oh, and Disney is a sicker mother f’er.
Dang, a Judge Judy marathon, warm comfy mesh cot AND followed by a snack of Goldfish and applejuice????
I’m so there!!!
so now I’m sitting here trying to figure out what i should google to find out the real worlds to that Stevie Nick’s song. I wonder if “stevie nicks ‘just like a’ lyrics” will work…
sheepishly..
me
Through snorts of laughter I remembered the not so kind pimp/ho version of that same song being sung about a certain sorority in college. Ahhh, good times. My little ones are too small for the zingers but I’m waiting patiently to be amused. And yes, the new design is very nice.
CCR’s there’s a bathroom on the right.
I like to imagine the video for Edge of Seventeen…a little dove…with one wing…flapping helplessly.
Crap! If it’s not a one winged dove why in the hell have I been singing ot for so lon?
great new look by the way!
Oh, Miss Jean…and the ever classic ‘Scuse me while I kiss this guy.
untitledhusband…that would make sense wouldn’t it since most of us felt that way at 17?
i just read your new about page…i am here to say i’m actually jealous that you are getting the surgery. i know that’s seemingly sick and twisted but I. WANT. IT. so i’ll be living vicariously through you here. don’t leave out any details.
loving your new design, very pretty
thinking of you, today, untitled. post back when you can. heal fast!
I was thinking of you, hope the surgery went well and you’re on your way to recover and a new life!
