Flu Blues

Email to my mother:

A frog has kidnapped my voice, and now I sound like the son you never had. 

Serendipity

Very few things beat discovering a handful of forgotten dollar bills in the pocket of an an old pair of jeans. Automatic junk food dispenser - here I come!

Parking Pains

'You think this location is fine? I don't want a parking ticket.'

'Fine - one way or the other'.

'The difference of an article. Either fine, or a fine.'

Eye for an I

What do you do when post scripts such as 'Sent from my iPhone' and 'Sent from my BlackBerry' at the end of perfectly inane emails, which could have done without those extra additions, which unfortunately make the innocent owners take on the appearance of smug endorsers, waving around their expensive phones in your face with smug sing-song 'nyah nyahs' start getting on your nerves?

You reply, innocently enough, and at the very end, tack on a 'Sent from my ePhone' or 'Sent from my PurpleBerry'.

Symbiosis

Is Twitter on Facebook?

Awkward

New Exercise Regime

Is it ironic that my sore glute muscles are kicking my butt?

Waiting at the bus stop, bundled up in my 3 coats and jackets, I felt my body slowly disappear.

When I sat down in the blissfully warm bus, I felt like I was defrosting.
