i'm so glad,
i could entertain you,
make you smile,
i see it across the miles,
coming through loud and clear,
like your laugh,
when you hear mine that cackles,
and speaks an old familiar dialect,
like a long island chick,

i know i could amuse you,bemuse you, confuse you,
and excuse you,
you're my sounding board,
for this soulbearing one, my listener,
of this theatre of the mind, that i've created,
of the zany adventures of a hot, horny housewife,
always something new to unload,
on poor old you,

but you take it all in stride,a trooper,
my favorite audience, these days,
more than happy to oblige,
to be my straight man,
mr. conservative, in his comfortable chair,
sneaking a peak in, to the absurd,

i can see the twinkle in your eye,
the rise you get from this all,
like when you pulled my pigtails,
or i let you peek under my dress,
way back, way back, when...........

we do play off eachother, well, don't we?

even then,
it must have been written,
that somehow we'd connect again,

life's funny isn't it?

thanks again,
really,
i need this,
it's cheaper than paying a shrink,

and to think,

when we say, goodbye, until next time,
how nice your own ball and chain must feel,

afterall, yeah,
i'm a pip, and a trip,
disneyworld, the fourth of july, christmas,
a walk on the moon,
but,
be glad you don't share my permanent bed,
you might then hear......
a different tune

Well, gee, Michele, you don't vary in your outrageous aplomp and slight shock value added for the sheer joy of it, huh?


Whether this is really you, or not, many are, and you captured that personality well.

I found the ball and chain phrase notable, too.

Happy happy, joy joy...Hugs, Pat
