Rum pa pum pum pum ad nauseum

OK, so I’ve only been sitting at Starbucks working furiously for the past three-ish hours, and I’ve already heard four different versions of the “Little Drummer Boy.” If you recall, that’s a song that I have a particular aversion to.

Why? Well, because of all the “pumming.” Call me Scrooge, but do you know how many pums I’ve listened to today?

No?

Let  me tell you:

4 per line

24 per verse

72 per song

288 total pums!

And that is why I’m sitting at my kitchen table with my rather short hair in two pitiful pigtails, with two English muffins plastered to the sides of my head to pose as makeshift “buns.”

Augh. I think I have crumbs in my ears …
