Number One Hit
Thursday, August 28th, 2008Being near the ‘anniversary’ of Katrina and with Gustav about to wreak havoc on New Orleans again, I feel it suitable to note my saving grace through what was one of the most horrific times of my and my family’s lives. I’ve come to understand that he was only supposed to be in my life for that short period of time and coping was the reason.
We eventually wrote a song together. Here’s a few bits and pieces…keep in mind there’s girl parts and there’s guy parts just like the human body.

Number One Hit:
[Girl:] I met you at a bar one night and said “Can I cook you some fried food sometime?” You agreed to my surprise that’s when I noticed your eyes. You say I can’t cook worth a crap. But you eat it anyway, while you do the white boy snap.
Can I cook you some fried food sometime? What flavor ice cream do you like? You said you love me and I love you too. If we had babies, their eye would be blue.
[Boy:] Hey, baby, thanks to your stalking now you and me are talking. Where would I be without you? You’ve got a big red bike, you wash dishes how I like…and we both work for a Jew. So can I see you tonight? I like ice cream alright. I’ll eat it straight from the tub. But if I had to choose between ice cream and you, I guess it’s you that I love.

Apparently he really loved ice cream more. But that’s his loss-because opposed to ice cream i offer no additives, contain zero calories, and give lots of sugar.
