I sat down to a perfect salad earlier tonight.
Raised the first forkful to my mouth and took an audible bite out of my cheek.

It's in moments like that that swearing up a storm really does make you feel better.

8. I've always maintained
that yelling "Fuck!" at the top of your lungs is an amazing healer.

Khash.

(Can I kiss it better?)

It's the best thing to do when there's nothing else you can do.

11. Hasn't harmed your singing voice has it?
'cuz I'll be up in DC until the wee hours Sunday morn, and my voice might be a bit sluggish.

12. It hasn't affected my air passages, larynx or uvula.
So I'll soldier on.

Oh, you mean the swearing! No, I'm not hoarse at all!

15. I read the last word in your Subject as "vulva,"
and I wasn't really sure where you were going with that one!

20. Joani!
:loveya:

Thanks for the sympathy! I've been a poor correspondent lately, but I've been thinking about you, happy about Frodo and concerned about your grand-daughter, too.

Will your travels bring you along the east coast? I'm two blocks from where I-95 and I-64 coalesce and I know a great Italian restaurant where we could dine.

:loveya:

It's a date Darlin'! I hope to be down that way a few times this year. We'll make it a point to share a few laughs in real time.

I haven't been the best correspondent myself so don't worry, I know you love me. Thats what counts.

21. Hey, thanks MAHNY!
It's great to see you. I've been scarce. Work has me by the jellies this month. I'll see daylight around the 17th, I think. How have you been? :loveya:



This is turning into a pretty long thread about my cheeks! :blush:

24. Oh, I HATE it when that happens!
then, the inside of your cheek where you bit it sticks out a little bit more, which makes it an easy target for other, accidental bites...and soon enough your cheek starts to feel like raw hamburger.

Bummer.


Friend, I have sooooo been there. I think we all have. Good luck, hope it heals quickly.

:hi:

25. Yum, salad and human flesh.
May I inquire what dressing goes with that?

Feel better.

Remember: Food good, human flesh not so good.
