Your Vote Counts: Cast It Now

December 5, 2007 at 8:03 am | In hip to be square, my neurosis, spazzing | 44 Comments

I woke up to sequins scattered across the floor. While this is a far cry better than waking up to cat poop or puke, the green of these little gems does not put me in a festive mood. I sincerely hope this is not an indication of the coming day. And if it is, it better mean that shiny things will be scattered across the hours, decorating my day.

When I arrived at work yesterday I sat down at my desk and kept feeling something rubbing against my right calf. I would shake my leg a little as I sat there but didn’t think too much of it. A few minutes later a co-worker came into my office and as I rolled my desk chair back I discovered a sock. That tickle I had felt on my leg was none other than a sock stuck up my jeans. Oh dear, I’ve become someone who can’t dress herself properly. Of course, I blurted out my mistake out loud to the amusement of those stationed around me. My embarrassment is other people’s entertainment. So be it.

Speaking of embarrassment and entertainment. . . I’m wondering if you can give me your two cents. I know you guys love to chime in! I’m going to participate in Neilochka’s Blogger Christmahanukwanzaakah Online Holiday Concert on Monday but I can’t decide what song to sing. Aimee from Greeblemonkey has proposed that we sing a duet of “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” which I think is a fun and brilliant idea. But if I was to sing solo or sing a song in addition to the duet, I can’t decide what to sing. That’s where you come in. Here are the top choices:

Let it Snow!
Winter Wonderland
Santa Baby
Baby It’s Cold Outside (if I can persuade the Fella to sing along with me for the boy parts)

CAST YOUR VOTE NOW!

(Please no write ins. It was hard enough to narrow it down to four.)

“You will get a sentimental/Feeling when you hear/Voices singing let’s be jolly,/Deck the halls with boughs of holly./Rocking around the Christmas tree,/Have a happy holiday/Everyone dancing merrily/In the new old-fashioned way.” -Rocking Around The Christmas Tree, Brenda Lee

Santa baby!

Santa baby: before I even got to the list I knew this song would be perfect for you. I would have even broken the rule and written it in, but luckily it was already on the list. This song is sizzleicious. (But, I really want to hear you and the Fella sing Baby its cold outside… could you do two?)

Baby it’s Cold Outside!

Comment by PocketCT — December 5, 2007 #
Ohhhh. I was all over Santa Baby until I saw the duet option with the Fella.

Okay, that’s my vote: Duet with Fella.

Comment by AppleTree — December 5, 2007 #
Have you any doubt? Santa Baby, of course! It has Sizz written all through it!

Comment by teebopop — December 5, 2007 #
Jesus, you are going to do TWO??? You rock.

I vote either Santa Baby or Baby It’s Cold Outside.

Comment by Aimee Greeblemonkey — December 5, 2007 #
Winter Wonderland is one of my favorites, but you are definitely a Santa Baby!

Comment by Foo — December 5, 2007 #
Does it even matter at this point, since Santa Baby looks to be the clear winner?
I’m voting for Baby It’s Cold Outside.

Comment by diane — December 5, 2007 #
If you can get The Fella to duet, I vote for Baby It’s Cold Outside (I love that song). If solo, then Santa Baby.

Comment by Becky — December 5, 2007 #
It DOES matter! It’s not even 10:30 here on the West Coast. Anyone could win!

Durn it! My “sekrit” is out.

Comment by Hunter — December 5, 2007 #
Santa Baby, by all means!

Comment by Jen — December 5, 2007 #
If Fella flakes I’ll be your Dean Martin.

Comment by whit — December 5, 2007 #
I think you should get the Fella to sing Baby It’s Cold Outside … and then choreograph a dance to go with it … kinda like the wedding couple recently featured on my blog (oh yeah, and on You Tube and on Ellen!). http://newsomi.blogspot.com/2007/12/standard.html. :-)

i like the santa baby idea as well.
and your sock story made me chuckle too. sorry for your embarassment though!

Comment by brookem — December 5, 2007 #
The sock sounds like something that would happen to me! Do you ever get to work and realize you put your underwear on inside out? Hee hee!

Comment by kilax — December 5, 2007 #
I think I have to go with what appears to be the majority- Santa Baby.

Comment by justrun — December 5, 2007 #
Just to be a pain in the ass of conformity, I recommend “O Holy Night” a la Cartman.

Comment by dustin — December 5, 2007 #
Ugh, Santa Baby is sooooo overdone by now, me thinks.

I vote for Baby It’s Cold Outside. LOVE that song!

Comment by faithsista — December 5, 2007 #
I wore two different sneakers to work one day. They were similar but different brands. I had to point it out to my so workers, they had fun with it for a week or so. :)

Santa baby! (all sexy like)

Comment by G-man — December 5, 2007 #
I want to hear The Fella’s voice so if you don’t pick that one, he needs to talk and you need to record it soon. :)

Comment by sandra — December 5, 2007 #
Santa Baby with The Fella, could we make that happen?

Comment by egan — December 5, 2007 #
I vote for “Baby It’s Cold Outside” with The Fella.

I’ll cover for The Fella if he opts out.

Santa Baby could be sultry and Sizzlicious but I like the duet idea better.

Comment by Mr. Rodacre — December 5, 2007 #
I think Santa, Baby, too!

Comment by Deven — December 5, 2007 #
Santa Baby of course! It is the sexiest of all Christmas songs…

… about the sock … at least it wasn’t a pair of granny panties!!

Comment by NerdGirl — December 5, 2007 #
I was going to say Let It Snow, but after skimming the comments, I’m going to go with the majority and vote for Santa Baby!

Comment by Alison — December 5, 2007 #
Santa Baby with the one you sing with your Fella making a close second.

Comment by Airam — December 5, 2007 #
Baby It’s Cold Outside and I think you were infected by me wearing my pants backward.

Comment by Tracy Lynn — December 5, 2007 #
NOT Santa Baby! God, anything but that. Please. I beg of you.

Comment by TC — December 5, 2007 #
Sing with the fella!!!

Comment by Bre — December 5, 2007 #
The duet with the Fella!

Comment by Long Story Longer — December 5, 2007 #
It’s 8 below here. Obviously my vote is for Baby It’s Cold Outside.

Comment by allandnothingatthesametime — December 5, 2007 #

Comment by Ys — December 6, 2007 #
Well if the Fella is going to participate, you should definitely sing Baby it’s Cold Outside.

:-)

Comment by Beth — December 6, 2007 #
Well, my favorite of the three is Winter Wonderland, but I definitely think you should sing Santa Baby! :)
