Confession #44

Singing...

As kids we loved to sing all the time. Didn't matter how bad we were at it. It was fun to do and that's what mattered. When I was really little I remember sitting on the porch swing at Carol's house in Marion, singing Sylvia songs at the top of our lungs (all about affairs...but we didn't know!). I'm sure we annoyed multiple people. :)

One July 4th we were outside, and continuously sang patriotic songs over and over and over again to the dismay of the neighbors. Ears were covered. Doors were shut. Tomatoes were thrown. Oh, wait, I went too far! Seriously though, it was SOOO bad that the neighbors across the street actually SHUT THEIR DOOR! Who would do that to poor children just having fun??? Poor us!

One time we were with Mary and we were singing the Ghostbusters song. That was alot of fun. When the song would get to the part that you are supposed to shout "Ghostbusters!" we would lift our arms in the air and shout "Smell my armpit!" Don't ask why. Apparently we thought it was hilarious. :) Takes little to amuse us. :)

And I can't forget that when it rained, I loved to sing about the ducks.

We are whippersnappers! We're in luck!
If it rains all week just pretend you're a duck!
Quack, Quack...Waddle, Waddle!
Quack, Quack...Waddle, Waddle!

Oh, good times.......

speaking of people shutting their doors, that happened while we were all on the porch waiting for you for your party...it was hilarious.

Speaking of directing the topic back to something you can identify with... :)
