I think old codgers are the cat’s pajamas.

You should look in cupboards. I had a tetanus shot the other day and the nurse opened up a magical door and pulled out a lollipop for me.

I can’t even imagine.

But you do an excellent job of describing it.

Ask for a lollipop *and* a fun Band-Aid, just because.

good gravy, you have every right to be grumpy. i mean, if my mashed potatoes aren’t cooked JUST HOW I LIKE THEM, it ruins my day.

i hope you get two lollipops. :)

Ah transference, my old friend.

At least you still have your sense of humour. I hope you can still make it to Halifax to hook up with your blog friends this weekend. Further, I hope you did get a lollipop; vodka flavoured.

How did I miss this post yesterday.

Milkshakes? Ha.

My solution for the dishwasher? Don’t go in the kitchen. But sadly I couldn’t avoid the bathroom and that wasn’t getting the normal attention it deserved either.

I’m so happy for the long and hard cervix! That’s awesome.

If the post wasn’t funny enough, Dave’s rebuttal certainly gave me the giggles! Sorry to be finding humor in your misery.

Glad to hear the good news on the cervix front. I’ll never forget my peri. telling me in my sub. preg. that my cervix was “the size of Buick”. Ummm… okay….

It sounds lame to say ‘hang in there’, but it’s all I can think to say…

hey!! long and hard!! (“i like my cervixes like i like my men”…*groan*) that really is spectacular news and i am thrilled for you- damn bedrest- did they tell you “just keep doing what you’re doing” (“going crazy and watching my floors get dirtier by the hour thanks.”)?

20 weeks!! more than 1/2 way there, mama…from another couch ridden grump i raise my glass of milk to you and say cheers and warmest congratulations!!

p.s. i always thought that milkshakes were a euphemism for something that husbands usually really like that wives often save for special occasions like birthdays…hmm…
