Take Me With You

The SJG: Cruise Ship Performer
My very close, personal friend/blog mentor extraordinaire Cathy Hamilton, known worldwide as BoomerGirl, leaves in two weeks on a fancy-schmancy Italian cruise, with her dashing husband.  Since she first announced her European voyage, the SJG has begged, repeatedly, and without shame, "Take me with you!"  When it comes to escaping reality, my motto is, sign me up.  Generous gal that she is, not to mention powerful international goddess, Cathy has come up with a slew of  options -- one of which involves stuffing the SJG into her BG-monogrammed luggage.  Alas, I have a slight issue with claustrophobia, so I had to pass on that one. Cathy's follow-up idea:  get me hired as one of the dancers in the "Viva Italia" nightly extravaganza. Color me excited.  I've always dreamed of being a cruise ship performer!  But then, who hasn't?  I have my costume.  I'm still waiting to audition. Fingers crossed.

  2. I'm hysterical over the guy in the foreground of the photo! OK, you. Start practicing your jazz hands and if this scheme doesn't work, we can always be lady escorts for single gentlemen on the ship, like Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon in "Out to Sea!"
