30 Days of Writing Minus 2 - And the Next Thing I Knew

 And the Next Thing I Knew


If you are new here, or do not know John Prine's Dear Abby song, then you will need to go back, as this must be sung (in four part harmony if you wish).
Dear Abby, Dear Abby

I'm feeling much better

My first post should have been a tribute to cheddar

I had to think long and hard and the next thing I knew

My bad mood had upgraded from depressed to just blue

Signed, Mental Case


Now go visit Nicky and Mike and see who else created something for you to read...

      My sister's horses could use a new salt lick.

    Why do I have a feeling I'm going to start waking up in the night, humming this song? What have you done to me?

      I think I've given you a reason to get up and pee.

    You know, I didn't know the song before, but the melody is really taking hold now :)

    I have a sinking feeling I'll be humming this song for the next 20-something days..

    I'm going to be singing those first few lines every time I visit too. Hey, there are so many bad songs you could have chosen, I'm grateful you chose one I can remember the rhythm for.

      It could be like the Alice's Restaurant Anti-Masacree movement!

    Hey LaughingMom! I like your thinking; I'm a cheery fella, but my mood could still do with an upgrade some days. Indigo

    I'm starting to sense a pattern here. I think. Maybe I'm dreaming.

    How are you, LM? Well, I hope. Not, I fear.

    By the end of this competition, I suspect you're going to have one long, kick-ass folk song to sing.
