My warped version of Little Peter Cotton Tail has been stuck in my head for the past couple of days. I don’t really know the song so I just screech, “Little Peter Cotton Tail! Hoppin’ down the bunny trail! Hippity hoppity Easter’s on! its! waaaay!” over and over. It’s driving me (and Sweety) crazy. I like to wait until he’s in the shower (so he can’t escape) and serenade him with it. If I stand back far enough, I can dodge the soap bar when he hurls it at me. Lucky for you, the camera battery is dead so I can’t record myself singing and share it.
2:13 p.m. Wait! I decided to use the handy dandy computer to sing my song for you. I cover my face when I’m singing so I can’t see you. The picture moves because I like to bounce up and down when singing it. Little Peter Cotton Tail! Or here if that doesn’t work and you don’t see it below. See, if I’m going to embarrass myself? I want to be sure that you can all bear witness to it.
Do you ever have completely strange thoughts? I sit in the corner at work and sometimes my mind wanders while I’m staring at the wall. Monday morning, all I could think about was what it would look like if I stood on my desk and yodeled to the office and then sat back down like nothing had happened. I think the people in Cubeville wouldn’t even notice and that really makes me laugh.
Not only do we answer customer service calls now – we also get internet calls! Woooo-hoooo! Do you know how delightful it is to try and help someone get on a website when they don’t even know where the address bar is to type in a url? I spent 15 minutes on a call yesterday before realizing that the person was typing the web address in as a google search and that was why they weren’t seeing what I was telling them they should see on the screen. Gah. Some people don’t need computers.
I’m stumbling around this morning just trying to wake up. Through bleary eyes, I see see Sweety lurching towards me with tube socks on his hands and they’re stretched all the way up to his elbows. “Hug me! Hug me! I’m a burn baby!” he wheezes. What. The. Fuck. If this doesn’t prove that he is a half bubble off plumb then I don’t know what does. He’s still cute though.

Yes I think totally weird, random thoughts all the time – I think that is one of the reasons I like you. You’re alot like me.
Sweety cracks me up.
Little Bunny Foo Foo has been on MY mind. Coincidence? I think NOT :)

Great minds think alike! ;)
Oh yeah! Little Bunny Foo Foo! Scooping up the field mice and chopping off their heads! Now that’s in my mind. It is a refreshing break from Little Peter Cotton Tail though.

Wait. I just looked up the lyrics. I guess Bunny Foo Foo was bopping them on the heads. I like chopping them off better.

It’s totally good that you covered your eyes. It would have been embarrassing if you saw me fall off my chair laughing in just my underwear……..

Oh well, maybe you will record it a different way and then I’ll be able to see/hear it…..!

I taunt Mrs. Phos with the “No Beer Today” polka. I put a sock over Yukon’s snout to turn him into an elephant. He doesn’t appreciate it much.

Oh, man.
When I read your version of Little Bunny Foo Foo, my only thought was “Wow. We learned it a lot different up North”.
If I worked in your Cubeville, I would probably need to wear Depends.

Ummmm…..
You were singing Peter Cottontail when it is nowhere near easter and you question “Sweety’s” sanity?
Oy!

I used to wonder what my dad would do if I jumped up in the middle of one of his sermons during church and started singing “LIKE A VIRGIN! TOUCHED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME!!” I don’t think he would have liked it very much, which is probably why I never did it, but I can certainly relate to your desire for inappropriate yodeling! The vid is great!!

OMFG, that was bloody funny! I actually DO stand up in Cubeville and burst into Baby Got Back when things get too intense. My cube-mate doesn’t fully appreciate my rendition but it makes ME feel better!
