Feel Better! See how well that works when phrased as an order? You have to imagine the pre-school petulence in the voice. If only opportunistic microbes listened to me.
One of them just called up my mother's brother, wondering if he would like to send them money. Because someone's life is on the line? Because of dire financial straits? Nah. They just want a donation to their synagogue in Miami.
It's stories like this that make me appreciate my family all the more, since their main claim to annoyance is that the Never. Tell. Anyone. Anything. Ever. (I am guilty as the rest of them, sad to say). This is a good thing since I may well be making the lightning tour of New Hampshire to see my grandparents this weekend for Mother's day.
One thing I always wondered, perhaps its from a month now of getting cut off on the highway by snowbirds with Florida plates; is there something about that state that just adds a little miserable on top of anyone who resides there?
