The Hokey Pokey Of Death

...Perhaps that is being a little dramatic, but I can blame it on all my recent illness. I was sick pretty much the entire month of February, first with bronchitis, then a sinus infection. I lost ten pounds and gained one cracked rib. I still have the sinus infection and am on three different prescriptions. Someone yesterday asked me if I had one foot in this world and the other in the next, and I could not decide. Later concluded that it is more akin to that staple of elementary music programs everywhere:

You put your right foot in,
You take your right foot out,
You put your right foot in
and you shake it all about--
You do the hokey pokey
and you turn yourself around--

that's what it's all about. Really.
