  • Lola and Naughty Monkey

    Remember the scene from Ghostbusters when the demon-god from outer space thing told them to "choose the form of the destroyer?"  And everyone was carefully keeping a blank mind and then Dan Akroyd had a thought? 

    He couldn't help it and he couldn't get it out of his mind. 

    Wellllllll - Many thanks Rainbow - I can't stop singing,

    "Her name is Lola,
    she was a show girl,
    yellow feathers in her hair,
    and a dress cut down to there. 
    She would merengue
    and do the cha-cha
    and while she tried to be a star
    Tony always tended bar
    across the crowded floor
    they were young and they had each other
    who could ask for more ..."

    I was humming it this morning on the way to church so the boys asked what I was singing.  I explained it to them.  On the way home from church ... it came on the radio.  Now its starting to feel like the Stay Puft Marshmallow man.  Regardless of what we tried to think, we can only think ... Lola ...

    I mentioned that if we are going to call her Lola we should download the tune.  Michael said, "okay, but you're putting it on YOUR iPod, not mine."

    Humph, kids, who told them they were entitled to opinions.

    *****
    I got the bills from my visit to the ER.  Altogether?  $2,030 to learn that it was the medicine I'd paid $100 for the week before that caused the problem.

    *****
    So what did I do?  Here I am with my new Lola Victoria Baby.  And my savings account more than decimated (you know that to decimate means to thin by 10% right?).  So what did I do last night?  I bought shoes.  I admit, I love the shoes, they are JUST TOO CUTE, but I also love the brand name. 

    Naughty Monkey. 

    Don't that just make you smile?  And on the sole they have a Naughty Monkey logo so if you walk on soft sand, or wet cement, someone's behind, or something you'll leave behind a Naughty Monkey imprint.
