Aren’t things supposed to slow down as the holidays approach? So why do I feel like I’m running ragged at work every day, running to the next social event, then running home to do it all again? It’s mostly pretty good, it’s just very different from the way December usually goes for me!
Anyway.
I don’t know if it’s just first-born behavior or what, but occasionally Mark will do something that will make me say, “My god, I married my sister.” Nowhere is this more apparent or irritating than in their complete disregard for lyrical accuracy…which is why I am currently in so love with this commercial:
Mark would like me to tell you that he didn’t know the actual line. I would like to tell you that he didn’t care.
What you don’t know baby is that when you aren’t home, I sing my version in the shower with the same enthusiasm as the gentleman appearing at 00:12! :)
I’m sure you do. :)
Although, less Elton John, more Tool.
Hold me closer, Tony Danza!!!!!
The funny thing is, someone who will remain nameless claims he and his friend came up with that. Ummmm, yeah.
Hahahaha.
For all these years I wondered what the correct lyrics were but lacked the intellectual curiosity to look them up. I am abashed. But Mark’s approach (like that demonstrated by the commercial) is the norm. It’s like spelling: If you only know one way to spell a word, then you can’t really consider yourself creative.
Ha!
