An Obituary:

'Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, 'Common Sense,' who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and maybe it was my fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouth wash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.
It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an Aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.
Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust. His wife, Discretion, his daughter, Responsibility, his son, Reason.
He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights; I Want It Now; Someone Else Is To Blame; I'm A Victim.
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.

Yep, tonight. (in most parts of the U.S., that is)

Yes - ugh



I keep one folder in the file cabinet that I throw absolutely all tax related stuff in. Now I just need to pull it out and actually do something with it.

Common sense...I miss him so...

i finished mine last weekend. i hated every minute of it, but now i have that same feeling of relief i get when i've finished my xmas shopping.... *whew*

thank you. that actually sounds really good and probably what i'll make for lunch. i think i must be getting a fever, cuz i'm freaking cold and clammy even all snuggled up in a blanket..... i need to go back to bed, maybe.

what is a hot toddy?

ok, i retract my blame.

i used to get sinus infections all the time. for a long time, i was dumb and was able to get rid of them by consuming large amounts of water, but it took a looooong time and i suffered miserably. when i finally caved and went to the doctors for antiobiotics, the infections became less severe each time, and as of today i haven't had one in over 5 years now.

glad you are feeling better.

1 tbsp honey
3/4 glass tea
2 shots brandy
1 slice lemon
add a cinnamon stick if you like

ooh, i don't think a hot toddy is for me. i would probably prefer to sweat it out by taking a few shots of tequilla with a hot cocoa chaser.

I know we're going to end up paying this year, and my husband will complain over me not being sure everything was handled properly so that we didn't have to.

*sigh*
