We're Gettin' Out!!!!!
I knew something was up when I saw the dog sled round the corner in front of the Castle Bedelia. The driver jumped out and left the poor panting dogs lying on the drawbridge.
"Telegram for The Countess" he yelled as he banged, banged, and banged the large door knocker on the castle gates.
The poor man was half frozen when he stumbled through the door. Countess duBarry had sent him halfway round the world from the frozen tundra she has been exiled to for the winter.
The message was simply stated:
"got the time off....STOP...gettin out..STOP....see you in New York..STOP...du Barry"
Of course I was the perfect hostess and offered the poor frozen man a nice glass of Glenlivet before sending him on his way with my reply:
"Put your glad rags on, WE'RE GETTIN' OUT!"
It was almost exactly a year ago that duBarry and I were in New York City together. As I recall we were a little overserved in a cute little gay martini bar off 9th Avenue after the theater one night. You can tell because the temperature was around 10 degrees and duBarry didn't need a coat!!
Is the Big Apple ready for us? Cause...........
"We're Gettin' Out !!!!"
