Realm: Baby blues - Subrealm: Home alone

I'm home alone with the baby and bored, and this just sort of came to me as I was trying to get him to go back to sleep. See, I'd semi-invited assorted friends to drop by, see the baby, and keep me company while Grace is at choir. Not surprisingly (given that they have, you know, lives), I seem to be SOL.
Ironically, this choice of song to parody is probably as a result of a conversation where we more or less decided NOT to inflict Raffi on this kid.

O me, o my,
What'll I do?
I can't find a musicologist to keep me amused!
But I know what, and so do you,
I don't need a musicologist to keep me amused.

O me, o my,
What's this I hear?
I can't find a medievalist to talk about beer!
But we both know I can manage here,
and I don't need a medievalist to talk about beer.

O me, o my,
What should I think?
I can't find an engineer to ply me with drinks!
But I know what: although it stinks
I don't need an engineer to ply me with drinks.

Extra out-of-town verse!
O me, o my,
I may go insane...
I can't find a poet to play
Give Me the Brain!
But I've got only me to blame,
and I don't need a poet to play
Give Me the Brain!

OH. I meant to email you back and forgot--Monday night is 2 hour aikido night, and I can barely move right now, anyways...

I count myself fortunate that I have no idea what song you are parodying . . .

(Although I am still very amused.)

Hmmm... We should have invited you to come over (late-ish as Stephen and I finally made it to the gym together!) to watch us do laundry, complain about the messy house, stephen surf porn (this time electronic cars, not furniture made out of cardboard, so slightly less viewer friendsly as less funny demonstrations on youtube) and me read the last chapters of Montallou. What I want to know, is how come the house doesn't look much better despite last night, and why is there still is a mountainrange of laundry??? Sigh...

Because in your efficiency, you went and did laundry, which now needs to be folded?
