I LOVE LUCY . . . .

How better can I put it than the actual title of her show itself. Its true I LOVE LUCY. I have watched her since as far back as I can remember. I know every single episode word for word. I don't even need the volume on and I could speak every line. She has brought me comfort on Nick at Nite as a small child before bed and even now if I get upset about anything I can watch her and Im histerically laughing in a couple of seconds. Shes a pioneer NO ONE was doing the kind of comedy that she did at that time. No woman had a show with their name in the title and the show being centered around them. Her physical comedy was unsurpassed by any woman of her time and she out witted a large amount of men as well. She showed the world that WOMAN are funny too. She paved the way for every woman comedian to follow. I watch her show and my troubles melt away. I always kid around and say I LOVE LUCY and Little House on the Prairie are my XANAX and that when theyre on I feel ease of anxiety and safety. My mom LOVED LUCY and Little House so thats probably why I feel that way about them. So today is her 100th birthday and I thought I'd write a little homage to a woman and character that has meant so much to me. A good majority of my funny shtick I pull when Im out with friends and family stems from her comic influence. So thank you LUCY for year and years of laughs and cheers to many more. <3 LUCCCCY IM HOMEEEE <3

always scheming with her best friend
