Hey Diddle, Diddle ...
Aug. 25th, 2007 08:16 amA couple of items before I get down to telling a "fractured fairy tale". (It's borrowed:)
Today is the 56th anniversary of the day my parents got engaged. Don't ask me why I remember, my mind just works that way. LOL!
How humid is it in my part of Texas? I went to the car wash last night and three hours after I washed it, my car still hadn't air-dried. Looking out my dining room window this morning. It still looks like I just pulled out of the car wash:)
Once upon a time in a land far away, a beautiful,
independent, self-assured princess happened upon a
frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues on the
shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near
her castle.
The frog hopped into the princess' lap and said:
"Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome prince, until an
evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you,
however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young
prince that I am and then, my sweet, we can marry and
set up housekeeping in your castle with my mother,
where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear
my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so. "
That night, as the princess dined sumptuously on
lightly sauteed frog legs seasoned in a white wine and
onion cream sauce, she chuckled and thought to
herself: I don't freakin think so.
