Right!

12 Comments

I’m supposed to be writing a post today.

But the truth is, I’ve run out of things to say.

My eyeballs are popping out of my head.

Or they would be if my eyelids weren’t made of lead.

I didn’t mean to write a rhyme

but today is running out of time.

So I guess this is what I’m stuck with.

Orange.

Because nothing rhymes with “stuck with,” either.

I’m going to bed.

Before this lame post gets any lamer.

(And no, that’s not a passive/aggressive cry for validation. It’s lame. Say it’s lame. C’mon, altogether now …)

Good night. 😉

    Actually, there is something that rhymes with “stuck with”, but I wouldn’t want to … uh … mess with your delightful poem! And I think we should accept the challenge and invent multiple words that rhyme with “orange”. Ready? Annnnnnd…GO!

    Now might be the time for that part of the poll: Go home, Linda, you’re drunk? Nah! Just kidding. It was refreshing. But I could feel the tired–or is that my own tired biting me?

    For someone with “nothing to say”, you did pretty good, Linda. This little ditty made me laugh.

    May I agree to disagree with the “lame” part?
