So I think it is just me and one other person in my department who do not have this terrible cold going around -- and I took a sick day yesterday! So I keep telling everyone that I am not sick! (I was out with female troubles.) (I reserve the right to get sick later...)
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I'm very sorry for your loss, Burrell.

Burrell, I am so sorry to hear about your sister.

So sorry, Burrell

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I hate dealing with umbrellas. The cheap ones break and I end up leaving the expensive ones on trains.

Burrell, I am so sorry. Peace to you and your family.

I didn't get to sleep until 4, and then a guy called at 8:30, so I had to get up and dressed. (Forgot to take the bra off the stairs, whoops.)
Right now, I'm still conscious and surprisingly cheerful, but that may not last.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I have a peculiar curse -- the inverse relationship between how expensive an umbrella is and how long I can keep it. If I bought a $40 umbrella it would disappear within a week. Given a cheap umbrella as a giveaway (or once, buying a $2 umbrella in a secondhand store because I needed it right there that moment) and I have the use of it for years.

Theo, that's what happens to me. Although I haven't lost an expensive umbrella in the last year or so because I don't ride the train that much these days.
