Miss Ginger prefers rocks #1 and 2. Not so much #3, unless someone treats her badly and she needs to throw it at someone!
If you're like Miss Ginger and always associate this song with the Chevy commercial, you may be as surprised as she that it has a really good verse and is a pretty inspirational song!
Stood there boldly
Sweatin' in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
I'd never felt that strong
Like a rock
I was eighteen
Didn't have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like a rock
My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were quick and light
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like a rock
Like a rock, I was strong as I could be
Like a rock, nothin' ever got to me
Like a rock, I was something to see
Like a rock
And I stood arrow straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams
Twenty years now
Where'd they go?
twenty years
I don't know
sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they've gone
And sometimes late at night
When I'm bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall
recall
Like a rock. standin' arrow straight
Like a rock, chargin' from the gate
Like a rock, carryin' the weight
Like a rock
Like a rock, the sun upon my skin
Like a rock, hard against the wind
Like a rock, I see myself again
Like a rock
Did you ever sleep so hard that you woke up with a "sleep hangover"? That's how Miss G is today- it's like she's in a fog! As Earl "Brother Boy" Ingram would say: "My minds a blank!"
Miss G's going back to bed with the kitties- it's the only way to cure a sleep hangover!

Sleep, sweet, sleep- get it now before you return to NoLa and all the festivities. My other wants me to ask you: "What is you job with Macy's?" I'm curious but too shy to ask, she's not! Hugs, Dannelle
So, no reference to Rocky ???
Hope you get some sleep to cure your...sleep.
