Day 2 of my mega giveaway and I’m a little depressed. Not
about the giveaway, which is going quite well, but because it’s my birthday.
With the less than appealing promise of a new pair of
underpants as a reward for this milestone into antiquity, I just want to go
back to bed. I’m depressed. I
feel about a million years old. In fact I think I am a million years old.
And responding to my abject misery, my daughter, never one to resist the opportunity to remind me of my Methuselah-like features, has taken to helping
me lift things, or opening the doors for me.
I bet she’ll even stoop to the
extreme level of vindictiveness of making her own bed before the end of the day
in an implied threat that shouting might just finish me off. She hasn’t even
resorted to the old standby of accusing me of wishing her fiery, awful death
even once.
I don’t care. I’ll survive until the end of the day if it
kills me.
One more day to grab Kongomato for free. Number three is
going nicely, or horribly, depending on one’s point of view.
Happy birthday, Roger! Have a wonderful day. :)
ReplyDeleteVery kind of you. I trying to forget it - and especially my forthcoming underwear.
DeleteHappy Birthday, Roger. Put your feet up and let the youngsters wait on you!
ReplyDeleteWait on me?????? I was woken by Hurricane Bertha and then requested to make tea for everyone. My reply is not something I'd put down here. It went vaguely along the lines of "No I think I'd rather not." Or something like that. And as for mucking out my daughter's horse because she couldn't be bothered; well I'll leave it to your imagination.
