Doing the Wobble While Being Old

I just read the lyrics for the song, the Wobble, and I am blushing. It’s about sex.  It’s a really fun dance, though, mostly for women, although Saturday, as I wobbled with forty other people on a postage stamp of a dance floor at a Vallejo winery, there were at least four guys.

Pretending to Be Fat

I found this photo of myself this morning, in a glass cabinet where I stuff important stuff. I don’t remember putting the photo in there, but here it is. I wore hats even back then.

Late-night Loser

(re-run) I met a guy at a dance. We emailed each other for a week (before texting). We decided to meet at Bing Crosby’s. I took a seat at the bar, and asked for water. After all, I’d had two glasses of wine already, waiting for him to get off work at the TV station… Continue reading Late-night Loser

Getting Some Action

Hooking up, doing the nasty, bumping uglies.Getting down, kicking it, going all the way.Doing it, doing the deed.There are many euphemisms for having sex, or as Sheldon on the Big Bang Theory would say, “having coitus,” and once he even said, “Dance with no pants.”In the olden days, someone wrote a song about making whoopee. Having sex… Continue reading Getting Some Action
