Call

Listening to: Minnie the Moocher by the Blues Brothers


I had my old CD of the Blues Brothers on. I loved their songs, so classical and jazzy. I was always a sucker for them ever since I was a kid. Minnie the Moocher was one of my favorites and I sang it for Fayt when we were in college.


Hey folks here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a low-down Hoochie Koocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale

Hidey Hidey Hidey Hi
Hodey odey odey oh
Heedey Heedey Heedey Hee
Hidey Hidey Hidey Ho

She messed around with a bloke named smokey
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to Chinatown
And showed her how to kick the gong around

Hidey Hidey Hidey Hi
Whooooooaaaap!
Heedey Heedey Heedey Hee
Hidey Hidey Hidey Ho

She had a dream about the King of Sweden
He gave her things that she was needin'
He gave her a home built of gold and steel
A diamond car with the platinum wheels
Hidey Hidey Hidey Hi

Whooooooaaaap!
Heedey Heedey Heedey Hee
Hidey Hidey Hidey Ho


He gave her is townhouse and his racin' horses
Each meal she ate was a dozen courses
Had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted them a million times

Hidey Hidey Hidey Hi
Whooooooaaaap!
Heedey Heedey Heedey Hee
Hidey Hidey Hidey Ho

Poor Min', Poor Min', Poor Min'

I loved that song.

My cell rang, the stupid jinggle again so I knew it was Maddie. I picked it up and got the ear drum buster of my life. "Call them right now!!! You are showing them around the hospital this evening!!!!" CLICK!

I just looked at my phone and sighed. Okay, I thought as I started to punch in the numbers for their hotel, calling them.

It rang for a while till the front desk picked it up. "Yes hello ma'ma. Would you please conect me to Dr. Gregory House and Dr. James Wilson's room?"
