For the December meeting, I helped entertain the Tucson chapter of Sisters in Crime with the help of two violinist friends. We played mariachi-style music.
Although the group enjoyed the songs, things didn't really get rolling until I asked them to sing along with "Cielito lindo." Then I sang my own version:
When I lived in Durango
I used to get so mad
At bad lovers
Now I never get mad at all
But I kill them with
All their brothers
They’d tell me
That they’d come for me
On a Saturday in the evening
But I’d sit all alone at home
While the b---- all
Went out drinking
Chorus: Ay, ay, ay, ay
I love to kill them
With poison with arson
Revolvers and guns
It’s not that I hate them
I’m just having fun!

Moral: Always be nice to writers--or you'll end up a victim in their next book!
