September 29. It’s Broadway Musicals Day. There have been several famous musicals that included dogs in the story. Two that quickly come to mind are Toto from the Wizard of Oz, and Sandy from the musical Annie. There are hundreds of famous musicals, and as I was looking at the list, I started thinking how the titles could be about life in our house…
Pins and Needles – about my encounter with the porcupine
Deathtrap – the inherent dangers in walking around our house when we have spread out our hundreds of toys from the toy bin
The Pajama Game – jockeying for a position on the human bed – AFTER our human has fallen asleep
Jekyll and Hyde – my ability to change my loving adorable behavior into a monster when someone tries to come into my sleeping space
A Chorus Line – the choir-like barking that goes on while we are waiting for our food dishes
The Magic Show – our ability to make food disappear so quickly that it appears the dish was never full
Promises, Promises – the annoying human habit of saying “I’ll be right back” – even though she may be gone for an hour or more
Cats – this one is obvious. One of our favorite things to chase. That and foxes, rabbits, and leaves.
Hair – another obvious title that applies to our house. From us furry PONs to the ever-shedding Paxton, our house is FULL of it.
Ain’t Misbehavin – OK this one doesn’t REALLY apply. When does that EVER happen in our house? Oh I know – when we’re sleeping! On the human bed.
So go and sing a show tune today and as we say on the East coast – I hoped you have a Wicked good day!!!
