Miss Otis Regrets
“Miss Otis regrets, she’s unable to lunch today, madam,
Miss Otis regrets, she’s unable to lunch today.
She is sorry to be delayed,
but last evening down in Lover’s Lane she strayed, madam,
Miss Otis regrets, she’s unable to lunch today…”
Oh, now. It wasn’t anything grim, don’t get excited. But I wasn’t able to lunch with y’all last week because I was… Where? You guess. Vixy was the only one who missed me, apparently. (And no, you don’t get a guess, girl. Cuz you knew!) (Ditto the rest of yins who already know the answer.) So, where in the world did the Wacky Family go on vacation?
And did it really warrant removing the children from school for an entire week? (I’ll answer that one: Yes, it did.)
Would you like to know the lyrics to the song my daughter sang most of the way home? Yeah, OK. Here you go:
“That darn party pooper there he goes,
pooping out parties!
Paaaaaaaarties once again! Yeah, yeah.
Shake that booty, right in the Baaaaaaaaaarbie’s face! Woo!
Where’s… Super Granny? Where?
There she is! Look Super Granny, it’s the party pooooooooper!
‘Little girls, do not be crude!’
That darn party pooper, Super Granny can’t solve the riddle.
Oh! Oh! There’s my pizza, left over from yesterday!”
(Like how she worked the reality of finding old Pizza Hut in the car right into the song, no problemo?)
Her brother, in a deep voice: “Super. Batman. Is. Here.”
Yes. Imagine all that, times 2,000 miles. (That’s a hint.)
