Will the penguins or Lisa Marie Presley save the day?
















With the Friday bloghop, I was constantly on and off the laptop, checking for posts from my fellow hoppers. The sun went down, and still the posts were arriving... and my 'hop to it' took a little longer then anticipated. 

Teddy, my (mostly) adorable stuffed personality  was not amused, and fast losing patience. Arguably, I had taken 'his allotted time,' but now close to finishing I asked what it was that he'd like to watch? His usual Friday forte is to watch a movie while, simultaneously, listening to rock music. (I never really question. I am merely the keeper of the CDs and DVDs.) Being so late, you'll see them hanging until sometime Saturday, when I'll tip toe in and retrieve said laptop...(shhh.)

Teddy chose action-adventure with the Penguins of Madagascar. Great choice but the music... what is up with this Teddy dear? 

He thinks the early Lisa Marie Presley music is 'kicking'? The song is rather bouncy and gets me going, but what is she talking about? Teddy explained that in this song, Lisa is singing to herself about not liking her choices. (Oh. Okay.) She refers to herself as an "Idiot," singing, "... you're an idiot and I hate your guts; I'm never gonna wish you well...". But she makes different choices and becomes happier. (Can we listen to a happier song, Teddy? Teddy?)

Well ~ listen to one, both, or I'll see you on Saturday for my choice! (Goodnight Teddy... Teddy?)

    2. probably not. As far as I know USA is the only country in the world which has a ban on Kinder Surprise eggs (chocolate eggs which hide a little toy as a present inside) because some parts of the toys inside are too small and can be dangerous for kids, not that anyone has ever died from it here in Europe LOL

  3. Lisa Marie makes me sad, and she could stand to take a brush to her hair. I don't understand all the words.

    Love,

    1. This is a song she did right before cutting lose of her 'handlers' in Memphis. She now lives in England, has an album that's till doing well... raising her children. You wouldn't even recognize her. But it's one of Teddy's favorite songs...and you know that we often give in to the little creatures.(smile)

      Sorry I didn't post the lyrics, though I did think about it. Instead I went to bed and left Teddy on his own!
