Scene: Place of employment, in the hallway. We see an older gentleman pushing a large, heavy-laden cart almost overflowing with boxes down the narrow hallway.
Enter Cat, jauntily strolling down the hall, whistling a lively tune. She spots the Older Gentleman and…
Cat: Wow! That looks burdensome!
Older Gentleman: ??
As Cat passes…
Cat: (mouthed Baby “‘I carried a watermelon’?!” Houseman-style) “That looks burdensome”?
It could have been worse, I suppose.
I almost said “onerous.”
If you’d said onerous, I guarantee he would’ve been sniffing his pits after you passed.
“I carried a watermelon.” Hee.
P.S. I guess Dirty Dancing is now considered VINTAGE, too?? Gah, I’m so depressed over this I’m-suddenly-very-old shiz.
I refuse to leave a comment on a post where someone is quoting Dirty Dancing..DOH!. I just did.
Man, I loved Baby. I even loved how she walked up those stairs with that watermelon in that cute dress.
My great niece has a onesie that says, “Nobody puts Baby in the corner.” Too funny!
