I need silliness in my life. Much of what I do is serious. I spend time thinking and talking about illness, abuse and end of life. If I allowed it to do so, it would dominate my life. But life is so much more than bad things and ending. Sometimes silliness reminds me of that. Entertainment aimed just at being entertaining.
Would you join me for this show?
I'd love to, but I can't do silly at those hours. I can't do serious then either. I'm usually asleep at that time. Do silly dreams count? I do believe that entertainment should always be entertaining. I don't believe that a movie has to be dreary and depressing to be considered "art". It's just a dreary, depressing movie. Give me Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Airplane! Silliness, take me away!

DeleteDeedles, sleep during the day and then we'll pump you with loads of caffine.
DeleteMaddie, honeychile, you do not want to see me loaded up on caffeine! If you think I'm manic now, woo hoo, we're talking freight train (and I don't mean my weight) !
DeleteI second deedles; the show sounds great, buy oy the time frame!
ReplyDeleteperhaps a matinee for us seniors should be considered, yes?
Maybe we can organize a group of mature performers for a matinee, Spo and John doing a bit of cabaret?

ReplyDeleteIt could be funny, I have to agree, I don't stay up that late anymore.
DeleteJoin ya, hell, I'd be in!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was sorry to have missed you on your recent sojourn here, but hope you enjoyed the fair hamlet.
It was fun, we will be back.
DeleteI thought of you, when I saw this sign and took this picture. Deep inside all of us is an entertainer, few of us have the balls to let it be seen and heard.
DeleteDefinitely. I believe in escapism.
ReplyDeleteI lack it.
