You should've heard my girlish squeal when I randomly found BHD.
Cat, I can imagine. For me, OTDE was so elusive. I just couldn't find it, and was about to give up and have Sam Goody order it for me. After all, the girl that works there already thinks I'm nuts...
I decided to try Wal*Mart one more time, even though I knew it wouldn't be there. I was flipping through the CDs, RWS - got it. BHD - got it. Then I spied an apparently nekkid and very wet Al! It was all I could do not to jump up and down and squeal. Breathe deeply, walk calmly to the check stand and non-chalantly purchase the CD. Maintain cool til you get to the car where you shred the outer cellophane wrapper to drool over the liner notes and pictures.
Oh yeah, I can understand...
We all complain about how long it takes for a new AL CD to come out, but 1) excellence takes longer than mediocrity, and AL insists on perfection, and 2) as a mother of three, I can tell you that once you have kids, you have very little time to do other things (not to blame Nina for the four-year gap before PH, but AL's worked so hard for us for so long, I think he more than deserves to have a life now.) He knows we'll wait. We'll bitch, but we'll wait. 'Cause nobody brings us joy more than that hunky polka-playin' master of hilarity!
