girl on fire

5507-alicia-keys I went to go pick up First Son from day care and they were playing top 40 music. I started singing along to “This Girl Is on Fire” and the notes are so high, I just sounded like a man in drag…again. To cover up my embarrassment, I made up the words. Nothing fancy, but just like “This dinner’s on fire,” “this broccoli’s on fire,” etc. and all of sudden I was horse-shoe-ringed by a bunch of four-year-old girls who all laughed really hard and waited bright-eyed to hear what was next.

All I can say is know your audience, people. I’ll be here all night, thank you, thank you.

  1. you are so sweet. those four-year-olds are killer man, they just come up with you with these saucer eyes because there’s a very basic consciousness there. but they’re beginning to like jokes! (and tell them)
