Soon....

Once upon a time......
I wore green platform shoes and painter's pants
danced on table tops at Rosie O'Gradies,
drank champagne and skated in and out of ditches,
graffitied in midnight sand with barefoot toes,
climbed trees
and ladders
leaning on prickly holly bushes,
danced low
and slow
and to the Rolling Stones.....

Soon.........

The Cinderella Syndrome......

Where are you going?

eric1313 said...

Clink!

Awesome, you went from zero clinks! (go to customize, then on the box below 'header', the one that says 'blog posts', click edit, and you can change the word comments to clinks!--or not) to having the SLB right here.

I hope you are free of that cast soon. No jumping! At least not for a little while. I don't want to read about you in misery, my friend.

singleton said...

SLB is reading the directions to me and I'm doing it, and now I'm reading it to her and shes doing it....we think!

singleton said...

And now you can "cast a spell" on her! Clink!

skinnylittleblonde said...

The Butterfly Bar said...

Maithri said...

Clinkety Tinkety - sounds very cinderella like to me ;)

Love, healing and laughter,

Maithri

Gearing up i see clinkety clink clink hahaha

Lola Starr said...

Hope you get the cast off very very soon but it does look really pretty. ;)

Ultra Toast Mosha God said...

Retro cast. I like it.

What's with all the clinking?

Is everyone in chains?

Unknown said...

That's the most artistically worked cast I've ever seen. Are you going to keep it once it's removed? Incidentally, the original folk tale that Cinderella was based on featured a fur boot and not a glass slipper! There's your useless bit of trivia for the day.

justacoolcat said...

Whooo Hooooo!!!!

The cast is coming off, no?

SHE said...

publish your work
frame your cast
two ways your love
will spread and last

"cheers! to your unstoppable spirit" ~s.

Scott from Oregon said...

No more clump clink... clump clink... clump clink... just to refill your beer glass...

singleton said...

KJ.....I knew we could get ya going! :)Clink!

Maithri....I LOVE the laughing part! Oh, I've been so careful luggin' this baby around! It should really go down in some kind of Cast of Fame thing, as the boot with the most dance hours on it, but the two of us came to terms weeks and weeks and now months ago....we gotta get along! And if you wanna know the truth,Good Doctor, I'm just saying "soon".....those words haven't exactly tumbled outa The Bosses mouth yet! Peace and love~

Ibeati....Sure beats the heck outa of clinkity Clunk! :) Listen to the drumroll!

Peace~love my friends

singleton said...

karma...TY on both accounts! :)

Ultra....Don't be silly, if we were all in chains, we'd be Clankin' not Clinkin'! Clink!

Electric....Actually, since we do "pass the trash" only for Christmas, I have been trying to figure out "what" I can make out of at least part of it and who the "lucky" recipient will be! I'm sure they'll be thrilled! Ha! And that's the best trivia news I've heard all day, maybe I really can be Cinderella!

suchacoolcat....Well, in my world, where everything goes my way, it is....I haven't exactly been told that, no, but you gotta start somewhere:)

peace~love my friends

singleton said...

She....Awww, you little sweetie! Cheers! CLinks! back to you.....and your unstoppable spirit! A never ending inspiration!

Scott... Ha! Yup! Except actually, I like it in the bottle:)

Peace~love my smiles

Jacob said...

I love the way you write, Sing-ie.

I clink to all you think.

(I brought home Italian cigs: "Nazionales.")

Acquaintance said...

Sorry I haven't been around, I've been kinda lonely lately tryin to figure out things, you know how it goes.

lol :P, I'm wearing my Obi-Wan Kenobi costume right now waiting for a Halloween party tomorrow but technically it is Halloween already so happy Halloween Singy. :D

take care, peace, & love

Kevin

Lady She has it right on, Sing.

I'd love to see your work published. And it is so good.

Missed ya today; if I fill in the draft folder with stuf we wrote, you should look in and add and color or put pictures in. I'll wrestle with it and make it look pretty for publishing.

Take care--I'll talk to you tomorrow, 'k?

Peace out.

i beati said...

You remarked about Deja - these cats playings are the important parts of life. I don't want to miss any little cute happenigs what are your other cats names?I was interested in Rachell's crew of fun animals on her walk....I have some oldies Princeman, Sweetheart and Evie , and a brand new Mellow Yellow..sk

singleton said...

Gawpo...Oh I know you had a wonderful time, I've gotta climb over and see all the pics! So......hows the flavor?

Mavin....Oh, I hope you have fun tonight....Party like it's .....well, no you weren't born then....party like crazy! I hope you find peace soon, Sweetie, lonliness is a hard thing, being alone is totally different. I've spent days, months, even years technically alone, and only moments lonely.....Sometimes you have to find friendship and love in the split second smile of a stranger, in the almost impossible way the sun always manages to rise, no matter what sonnet she fell asleep to, in the secrets whispered by the wind, in the belief that there is more.....Sometimes you have to let go, in order to go on....Wishing you
peace~love, my friend, they come hand in hand....

Eric....Ha! You know I don't believe in editing! Publishers would love that, huh! Nah, baby, that's for you....the prophetic, poetic one....to share....And you will, I just know it! Last night was funny, lost in a Tuesday world full of change, I'll be at the Butterfly Bar tonight, Wednesdays are for ladies....

Peace~love my friends

singleton said...

Morning Ibeati....
Here goes the sweet Parade.....

Georgia Mae....my precious, meant to be, traveled a 1000 miles and a lifetime or two, to be rescued, precious pup

Isadora Suzanne....The girl with the swirl, Our Queen, the one who changed me from an "I hate cats" to the Cat Lady!

Tallulah Joe....(better known as Lou, now that we know he's a boy)....our smokey dopey big boy in a black and white Tuxedo. His brother,
Roosevelt Fontaine was rescueed also on 9-11, his orange little eyelashes had forehead burned. Healthy and a Tomcat at heart, he's left to play the field!
DejaVue.....our playful, mischevious, "Are you sure I'm not a dog?" siamese. Georgia's very very best friend....

We lost Giselle and the little Orphan Oliver to the heavens, but not our hearts....

Clink~ to a house full! From mine, to yours!

singleton said...

Peace~love~freedom!

Mary said...

I had totally forgotten painters pants. I did used to love them.

singleton said...

Mary....I miss mine! Wish they were back in style, at least at the hardware store! They were the next best thing to levi's! Ummmm, I kinda miss shoes, too!
