I'm sick...

... so if I'm repeating myself, blame it on my cough-rattled, mucus-filled brain.

One day while the ladies were doing arts and crafts, Mrs. A asked Mrs. B to pass her a blue dot.

Mrs. B handed her a red star.

"No. I asked you for the blue dot," Mrs. A said.

Mrs. B cocked her head and for a moment, handed her the red star and started singing, "The old gray mare, she ain't what she used to be..." and was quickly joined by the rest of the table before they broke down into giggles.

Now, ask me if I'm going to work today. Yes, I am. My temperature is not over 100, I am not vomiting and I do not have uncontrollable diarrhea. I'm donning sinus pills and Mucinex as my battle armor and heading into the fray.
