Live To Sleep Another Day
My wife called it stupid busy...since we're all about the competition here in Cactus-Fish Land, I'll up the ante and say that I've been rediculously idiotically run-Forrest-run insane-in-the-membrane busy. In the last week or so, I've worked myself into a situation in which I have 20 hours of comp time and no possibility of taking it. Were you to have a magical camera that beamed you images of the Cactus-Fish household (you don't, do you?), I'd predict you'd see two very comatose people lying on a couch, or any available flat surface, having some approximation of the following conversation:
Me: I'm tired.
Her: Me too.
Me: Bloo blee mwahabbala gaga.
Her: You're not speaking English anymore.
Me: I know. Too. Much. Effort.
Her: Ganawana kleshto moopy-doop.
Me: Exactly.
So, be thankful that you don't have a courtside view of that.
Posted by Chris at February 15, 2005 5:06 PMWhile that's certainly not English, it does have a remarkable resemblance to baby talk. Now, since I am not fluent in baby talk I can't translate for you but I sure do hope that it wasn't anything bad. The baby might get the wrong idea and not want to come out. I'm thinking that may not be a very good thing.

Posted by: alektra at February 15, 2005 5:41 PMThe Cactus-Fish household is a lot like the Silver Girl and Guy household...at least when Guy is not hopped up on Red Bull and Girl is laying there going leave me alone. lol

Here's hoping for a better day tomorrow.

That is almost verbatim the same as Chez Quilty! It's contagious, I'm afraid!
I do hope you have a better day tomorrow!

Posted by: Nina at February 15, 2005 9:32 PMwell, if it's of any consolation, i've been sick with bronchitis/strep throat/ear infection/fever for the past week and have -384792% energy. yes, a negative percent of energy. i think i'm finally on the up side of it all, but i'm still exhausted.
i hope things calm down in your neck of the woods shortly!

Posted by: Heather at February 15, 2005 10:55 PMOh, and by the way, because I am just slightly OCD, Beth said "stupidly busy".
Posted by: Heather at February 15, 2005 10:55 PMSounds like some of the weekends at our house!
Just think - it's Wednesday and you're one more day closer to the weekend.
