So I think the kerpupples must have sat near me through one too many times of watching Footloose. Why in the world would I ever think this? Well, they don't like it when I dance. Ripley especially barks furiously at me anytime I spontaneously trip the light fantastic around the house. It's pretty entertaining, if a bit unsettling. Usually it will just encourage me to wiggle more enthusiastically and sing, to the tune of Safety Dance by that luminous one-hit-wonder Men Without Hats:"I can dance if I want to, I can make my doggy bark..."
That's all I've come up with so far. If I were more clever and/or less lazy I'd complete the lyrics. Perhaps I'll put it on my to-do list.
The mother-in-law unit arrives tonight for Thanksgiving tomorrow. She will be the only one joining the spousal unit and me - a cozy little family gathering. I'm lucky that we get along so well. Most of the time I think she and I find more things to talk about than she and the spousal unit, her own son.

Have a good Turkey day!!!!
Happy Thanksgiving, Slave. And you don't dance like Elaine Benes do you because that would make the kerpupples bark for sure. :)
LOL chel - I do love JLD and Elaine, but if I danced like that I'd never dance at all. I did get told once in high school that I should be on American Bandstand...I think at the time I thought it was a compliment. Ha!
My dogs hate it when I watch football. They hide.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Actually, Men Without Hats had 2 hits "PoP" Goes the World was the other. When they bark, it is a playful barking or a sit the fuck down kinda bark?
Hey!
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
