 Luvmypupster... Calling Bentley !
Saw your post about the cell phone - Gave me Flashbacks ! I think I posted this a while back on ANOTHER site and I really hope I don't bore anyone - its kinda wordy !! Sorry !
But, now I know I am not nuts !!! I called Chanel from the middle of Walmart one day - just called and asked for her and of course my husband held up the speaker phone for her - Well...she just started CRYING and running around - Course - I'm in the medicine isle at WALMART, feeling like a total mean mom for making poor baby cry unnecessarily - so...I decided to try to snap her out of it with her favorite song !!
Which Is...by the way The Village People - It's fun to stay at the YMCA ! Our words are - It's FUN to STREY at the Y.M.C.A - She LOVES me to sing that to her and will dance around and in general, we just act silly - but she REALLY knows that song...I just say "It's FUN"...and she's hittin it !
I look around - its pretty quiet...I start singing......
"Young man...theres no need to feel down - I SAID YOUNG MAN - PICK yourself off the GROUND..I SAID YOUNG MAN - CAUSE YOU're in a new town...There's - no - need - to -be - un-hap-py ----DA DA DA - IT's FUN TO STREY at the YMCA -
I'm kinda looking around - still singing and bobbing MY my stupid head like I'm on stage or something...
I quit after those few lines and asked my husband did that help ? and well - No it didn't .....she wasn't dancing, though she wasn't crying anymore....and I wasn't alone !!...there were 4-5 employees of Walmart behind this shelf and one by one...they start peeking at me !
One guy is walking in circles holding his stomach !
I'm feeling like a TOTAL IDIOT and said like hey..." What can I say - It's my dogs favorite song" ...(all I want to do is get out of there) - I can tell a few didn't speak English - but they for sure knew I was singing to my phone - I am now laughing my butt off - cause I can't believe
Trying to be cool - but not suceeding....I walk away and look back and told them - this is no lie - "Besides - That it was LIVE BY REQUEST !! The guy holding his stomach was the only one knew what I meant ....I think !
I left without shopping and took me a month to go back to that store ! I still haven't bought asprin there, but Chanel was the HAPPIEST acting Yorkie when I walked in the door amd that made it WORTH IT !
By the Way - WE STILL sing it at least once a day ! Now Cherish, the baby, is learning to dance along with Chanel !
Whew - That was long even for ME ! |
