and for my birthday, I get to get sick! woo-hoo!
(someone read the obligatory hemmingway quotation on the radio yesterday morning-- you know, the one about it being cold and whatever and the narrator bangs on his ceiling and yells "Hey, it's Christmas!" and she (who presumably lives upstairs) calls down something along the lines of "Horay!"-- and my father heard this and decided that had he done this from the dining room, I would have yelled back "woo hoo!" instead. Of course, when other people point out to me that I've used a word or phrase so much they expect me to do so, I feel awkward about using it again. Except "worthy" which
troyfish says gets on his nerves. But that's probably because I got it from
heuchera so it isn't really mine.)
but let it be noted that being sick also makes me cranky, and pointless messages of sympathy may prompt me to want to kick people in the ankles. If you must reply, say something entertaining or useful, instead. :)
