And I have a carol stuck in my head. Not just any carol. Not a nice one about a restful, peaceful evening with shepherds and angels or anything. Nor a lullaby about some kid in a feed bin. Oh no, I've got Good King Wenceslas stuck in my head. Why? Because apparently the kids are singing it in chorus. And apparently they were singing it this morning. Because Jeremy decided to belt it out while shaving:
"Good King Wenceslas looked out, 'pon the feast of Steven
And the snow lay round about deep and crisp and even!"
He paused for a minute then said, "You know they wrote that line just so they had something to rhyme with Steven."
He started singing again, the melody of the second line:
"And when the bus comes round about, then I will be lea-vin...'"
"everyone gathered round are just a bunch of heathens..."
"And when my stomach gets upset then I'll be a hea-vin'..."
Gonna stop writing now, and finish up my wea-vin'.
