Blarg. Sick as a dog and I'm writing my first exam in 2 hours. It's worth 100%. Yuck.I don't understand why people say "sick as a dog". All the dogs I see are annoyingly healthy, energetic, enthusiastic, moronic drool-machines. Right now I'm feeling slow, lazy, whiney, and vaguely pathetic, which in my mind puts me in the "lazy as a cat" category.
Don't get me wrong, I love cats and dogs, but etymologically? Sick as a dog just doesn't do it for me...Maybe one of those overly inbred poodle-type dogs that catches a fever at the drop of a hat (yes, there's another saying that bothers me. No one drops hats as often as the implication there).
Double Blarg. I need coffee, some supercharged generic variant of DayQuil, and food. Pretty much in that order.
Wish me luck... and just the good stuff. You can wish the bad stuff over to your neighbour or some cat or dog you dislike, or maybe one of those hat-droppers you just want to see slip in a puddle of moronic drool.
