Here's the lyrics to a silly song my grandfather in Missouri used to sing to us while playing the piano when we were little kids....lol:

Nobody likes me
Everybody hates me
I'm going to the garden to eat worms!

Long, slim, slimy worms
Big, fat, juicy worms
Ooozy, ooozy, ooozy, ooozy worms!

The first went down easy
The second one tasted greasy
The third one nearly got my goat!

Long, slim, slimy worms
Big, fat, juicy worms
Ooozy, ooozy, ooozy, ooozy worms!

Awesome! I see you followed a theme.

Lots of great rhymes of all kinds!

Sunny and in the high 40s today in the NV desert.

Today's Question:
What favorite activity would you like to spend a loooong day doing? ... that you can tell us about. I think the only thing I'd enjoy spending the whole day doing would be playing cards or reading.

What least favorite activity do you wish could be reserved for one very short day a year? Cleaning my house.

Do/did you have any pets? If so what kind? Two cats.

Any funny or unique names? They were both named when I got them, so nothing too unusual -- Meeky and Merlin.

Any unusual or exotic pets? Nope.

Show us a picture, if you like, of a furry or furless friend. The attached photo is Merlin. Meeky lives up to her name and is seldom seen.

Happy day everyone!

My rhyme is probably too dirty for this arena.

I realized I should have mentioned the pets I had in the past, so this will be an addendum to my original response. Growing up, I've had a long-haired calico cat, 2 seal point Siamese cats (at different times, not at the same time), a Yorkie/Pomeranian mix dog and most recently, a domestic shorthair cat. The furry, 4-legged animals I've had were wonderful companions and very entertaining.
