“Ever since the old world began, A woman found out if she shook it, she could shake up a man, so I’m gonna shake and shimmy just as good (fast?) as I can, ‘cause YOU CAN’T STOP THE BEAT.” Warning: ear worm, ear worm. . .also been humming Ricky Skaggs’ old tune this week, “Honey, won’tcha open that door. . .”
This was my mother! She had a lot of nervous energy, and, even into her 80’s, she could barely sit still for any length of time. When she did sit, her leg was always moving.
There used to be a woman in our congregation — young, very active woman — you was a leg-crosser-foot-twister, and would always sit right in view of my side vision wherever I was and twist that foot nonstop. It was SO irritating that I had to find ways to block her out of my vision or move.

When I see someone jiggling their leg… I can almost hear their mental thoughts, “Hurry up and finish your boring story.”

It means you should be up and walking.

It could also mean you have restless leg syndrome. Sitting still can be very challenging.

As I say, quit idling in overdrive. (I have the same problem.)

Everything on you jiggles, old girl. See if you can’t find an orbital platform on which to live!

I’ve met a couple women who just SMILED when they told me Why they were jiggling their legs.
It made perfect sense once I knew Why. But, it only works for Women.
