If I had a dime for every time I've felt bloated and crampy in the morning I'd . . . <BR/><BR/>ok, I'm not quite sure how far I can go in finishing that sentence. Since Susan started her blog I've been (asked, told, directed, you pick) to read it and provide comments if I so desire. So I check out the blogs she's linked to and it's almost all women talking to women. It's all supportive, inspiring and sweet, which is great . . . if you're a woman. Guys support each other through mockery, sarcasm and humor. If I've got 5 cold sores I don't want to hear my friends say "Oh, cold sores, poor thing!" I want them to say "Dude! You look like Grendel from Beowulf, you're disgusting!" By saying that, I know they care. As much as guys can care.<BR/><BR/>So, let me apologize in advance for any offense I've caused or will cause in the future. I will self censor to the point I feel that is acceptable to a XX crowd. (That's XX as in chromosomes, not a pornography rating.)Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12668652301300574699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745793019481744957.post-79005363770646625262008-04-28T12:56:00.000-06:002008-04-28T12:56:00.000-06:00I hate those days.

I tried to convince 1000s of teens in the 22 years I taught about the importance of having a good attitude...("I can if I think I can".."Give a smile and it will come back to you."..etc.) I know that it is true....but just for your info...I love you cold sores, tight pants, grumpy attitude and all. You have always been my cheerful, full of life girl.<BR/> If you are having a bad day, manage a good attitude for family and friends, but don't worry about putting a smile on your face for me. Just call me and complain. I will give you all the empathy and verbal hugs I can muster. After all, what are moms for anyway? I love you dear.

My attitude at the moment is rotten. <BR/><BR/>As for the cold sores...got a story for you. Gracie gets them (poor girl) too. She usually doesn't pay much attention to them, but one day last week she came into the living room to talk to Jon and I with a box on her head. She had cut out eye holes so she could see and planned to wear it the next day at school because she had "one of those barrassing thingys". We convinced her to lose the box and put some medicine on it instead. Jon had a REALLY hard time keeping a straight face but he managed...<BR/><BR/>Hope your glass half full attitude continues...<BR/><BR/>xoCecily Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01833641996572085518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745793019481744957.post-51667386878274459102008-04-24T15:55:00.000-06:002008-04-24T15:55:00.000-06:00Love that quote.
