I Don't Feel Like Dancing

That doesn't happen a lot, but when it does, this is one of the few songs that breaks me out of the funk.



If that doesn't work, this one probably will, or maybe even this self-referential song might.

Love the dress code. I think I have a pair of those in my closet.

I'm going to have to check the other two links--still feeling funk-y.

I often think, "If only I could play the banjo . . ."

I have a pair of overalls, too. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Time to resurrect the Old Lady Girl Band!

Okay - you tell the guitarist and I'll tell the drummer. We're going to need a new pianist. :(

Sorry - little lapse into funk there.

Don't forget about the all-important new dress code!

I'll work on my tambourine skills.

I know you can play the piano, I just thought R did last time. Maybe that was bass. OK. Now I need to learn how to play bass. That's second to banjo, but I'll try it. My fingertips hurt already.

Plainsies, Clapsies

A ball bouncing game from my youth instructed the player to throw the ball up ( plainsies ), throw it up and clap ( clapsies ) throw it up and roll your hands ( roll the ball ) and touch your shoulders ( tabapsies ). In trying to locate the rest of the ball bouncing chant, I found out not only is my “tabapsies” a mondegreen , but also the motion – touching your shoulders – isn’t even the correct movement! You are supposed to clap your hands behind your back and say “ to backsies .”  Yeah. That makes much more sense. Being only slightly deflated by this discovery, I will still share my exciting news.  In an attempt to counteract the stretching of my wrist from doing front squats two days in a row, I pulled out the tabapsies motion this morning.  This, in itself, is not newsworthy.  However, I grabbed both shoulders with all five fingers!!! Again, not exciting unless you know that when I was nine years-old, I broke my left elbow doing a running cartwheel; the repai

Memorizing the Preamble to the Constitution

Image
In preparation for celebrating the 222nd anniversary of the signing of the Constitution of the United States on September 17, 1787, here are a few videos that I hope will inspire you to at least memorize the brief, but powerful Preamble. First, here is my first attempt at video editing with the bare bones Windows Movie Maker (no ability to step through frame by frame with sound, or ability to mark stops before cutting). My daughters are reading the Preamble to the Constitution from the little book I carry in my purse. They can recite it by heart, but it I thought it would be a little different (and a little less exposed) if they did it this way. Let's not even talk about the 20 takes due to laughter. If you knew it as a child, don't worry, it'll come back to you as Barney shows in this video. Finally, a little treat for my sci-fi loving friends. And if memorizing and reciting The Preamble in creative ways leaves you wanting more, you can find out which Founding Father you&#
