Daydreaming At the Pizzeria

She said it so matter-o-factly,
that girl, Morgan Kay Ackley.
"One day it will be so
I'll be rolling in the dough!"
But being a pizza maker what do you mean exactly?



NOTE: This was another funny story at work. Not exactly my joke, but I turned into a limerick for laughter's sake. A girl was telling me about how she's be famous one day... how she'll be "rolling in the dough"... and I was like, "aren't you doing that already?"... Ooohh good times they were... good times.

Art imitates life. Love the playfulness and humor. Never thought of 'rolling in the dough' this way before... cute!

This is funny! I checked out your keyboard playing I like the destiny one a little more lively. I would have pegged you for more rock and roll. These lend more to a zen experience. What's with the big stick in the corner? To beat off all the adoring fans?

Thank you! It's actually not a stick, but an instrument called a didgeridoo. It basically sounds like a foghorn (if you don't know how to play it right)... if you DO know how to play it, it will sound very African.
