Guess what?
You've seen me dance, but you may not know that I also know how to sing. Yes, really. Furthermore, I'm in a choir, and we have a concert this sunday (sunday (sunday)). It's not like a big deal or anything, so if you were planning on eating, napping, staring into space, being a facebook stalker, being a regular real-life stalker, being a facebook stalkee, buying and selling stocks, stocking up on snacks, stocking up on snakes, snacking on snakes, snacking on cakes, doing a cakewalk, walking on the sun, sunbathing, actually bathing as in taking a bath, writhing, wriggling, squiggling, squawking, squaring the circle, running around in circles, running a marathon, running away from home, being a homing pigeon, poisoning pigeons in the park, parking your car, carving a turkey, eating a turkey sandwich, going to the beach and sitting in the sand pretending to be a witch, building a sandcastle, building an actual castle, living in an actual castle, livin' la vida loca, going to el pollo loco, giving and/or receiving taco-flavored kisses and/or any other taco-flavored public display of affection, being zesty, being zany, going to the zoo, laughing, crying, pondering, wandering, laundering money, lending money, borrowing money, checking your credit score, scoring with the opposite sex, scoring with the same sex, exploding, imploding, being impressive, being expressive, being extraordinary, being ordinary, ordering pizza, playing violin and/or viola pizzicato, violating someone and/or something, sucking dick for coke, or anything else you may have had planned for sunday night, then you may want to just keep that plan. Because really, it's not a big deal.
However, if you weren't planning any of the above, then you might want to come to my concert. And I would be glad if you did. Details time is now.
