Sick Day

Interestingly, when you wake up at 4 a.m. in need of more Alka Seltzer Cold and Cough medicine so that you can get back to sleep, if you don't take out your ear plugs, there is a fairly large crowd of people in your kitchen giving you significant applause just for the simple act of taking medicine.

Picture it: Teo in his skivvies, face swollen, hair askew, vapo-rubbed and stumbling for fizzy medicine in the pre-dawn hours. Ear plugs in. "Thank you, thank you very much."

For the best entertainment of the day, go here. How is this not Vinnissimo's creation? Best link I've ever posted on the Hombre.

Hombre!

You see what happens to you when you post "summermothereffingetc" while SOME of us are in school?

Oh I take it back. Skivvies and earplugs and hair askew? Let me bring you more soup and juice!

I fear that my sublte experience was not properly addressed in my effort to make the observation amusing. You see. Ear plugs + fizzy medicine + early = it sounds like there is a huge gallery giving me applause for (or in spite of) my woeful state.

Jokes refuse to be funny when you have to explain them, and it's always the fault of the joke teller. There's a reason that I don't write jokes for a living. I'll blame it on being sick or bored or both.

What I need right now is a huge plate of meatballs. That's what I want. I'm tired of soup and juice!

a little antsy over here

Actually, I thought that your post was funny.

With regard to meatballs: A friend of mine took me to lunch today at this fantastic hole-in-the-wall Italian deli in Ocean Beach today. Awesome meatball hoagie on fresh bread.

I love where I live.
