The Blog came to me extremely annoyed.<\/p>\n
She said she was furious that I had not made a virtual appearance in weeks.<\/p>\n
I replied that I am sick. I have a raging fever, my cough rasps like a witch\u2019s caldron, nothing is so disgusting: Double, double toil and trouble, cough and caldron bubble.<\/p>\n
She: You think Shakespeare can be your excuse?<\/p>\n
Me: No, I\u2019m just trying to explain that I have been out of pocket, otherwise indisposed, really, really busy.<\/p>\n
Me:\u00a0I discovered Wednesday I had pneumonia. It\u2019s Saturday, and I still have it.<\/p>\n
She:Excuses, excuses. What about before your pneumonia?<\/p>\n
I had to spread manure.<\/p>\n
You do that as a matter of course.<\/p>\n
Your wit is exceeded only by your sensitive nature.<\/p>\n
Was that a slam?<\/p>\n
Yes.<\/p>\n
Well aren’t we high and mighty.<\/p>\n
Would like to be the former, incapable of the latter.<\/p>\n
Yada, yada yada.<\/p>\n
