How Jamie Got Her Groove Back. Ok, I’m still waiting.

How Jamie Got Her Groove Back. Ok, I’m still waiting.

School has been back  in session for months now.

Insert very dirty (yet handsome with trouble personal life) Mel Gibson as William Wallace yelling, “FREEDOM!”

Okay, so now what. My days have been full of trying to rein in life and household but all productive writing, volunteering, money making… ZERO.

All I see is poster of Angela Bassett. I’ve got to get my groove back.

O’ Groove art Thou?

Music helps in searching for groove. 

Pulled up “Back in the New York Groove.” Dear Ace Freely. Most cool song but honestly the band’s performance not so inspiring. Maybe just need the music. And to don Ace’s Moonunit suit and sit at my laptop.

Maybe if I just shake my groove thing long enough it will come back. At this point, I search for videos of Peaches and Herb’s classic. All I could find were videos of the great song accompanied by pictures of a very old record going round and round. So I settled …for this.

I now know of Drew Seely and that his voice blended with Zac Efron’s in High School Musical Songs. Of course I would have know this if I had been a tweenager. But if I was a tweenager, I probably wouldn’t be searching so desperately for my groove.

It would still be attached and not fallen off or been drained away in that mile long primary school carpool line. And I wouldn’t be looking at videos of rodents singing — attempting goofy dance moves. I will say Drew’s performance more inspired than Ace’s.

You’d think that would be a good thing.  Not so sure.

 Actually, I feel my groove starting to flicker. A bit. Yes, my little pinky is staring to twitch and type.”Shake your groove thing, Shake your groove thing, Yeah, Yeah.”

I’m back. I think. “Show ’em how they do it now…”

Oh dear Alvin. I’m trying really hard.
