16859. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 11:21:28 AM Jen, I meant that my sons had much hair when they were born and lost it soon after--right now, they haven't reached the age to worry about that.
Arky, you must be busy lately--how's school going?
Good morning, Mac. 16860. Macnas - 10/4/2005 11:42:32 AM Hello Mago.
My morning meeting beckons, and I must go. 16861. judithathome - 10/4/2005 5:57:39 PM No bad dreams last night so this morning looks to be the start of a good day. 16862. woden - 10/4/2005 7:26:23 PM Congratulations, Jen! 16863. alistairConnor - 10/4/2005 9:09:52 PM After sleeping for the previous 24 hours, I went to my doctor this afternoon to get a medical certificate to skive off work for a couple of days. Just a flu sort of thing.
I really felt like death barely warmed up, and expected her to tell me something in that line. Instead, she tells me she's never seen me looking so good : content and serene.
She's right, of course. 16864. alistairConnor - 10/4/2005 9:11:14 PM I tip my hat to ScottLoar and VonKreezus. Would be very pleased to see more of both! 16865. judithathome - 10/4/2005 10:07:35 PM You know, you can still look fine but feel dragged out by the flu. 16866. thoughtful - 10/4/2005 10:36:39 PM Hah! Just as I always suspected. A/C is a real flu-sy! 16867. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 10:47:09 PM Talking about flu, you had better go back to that doctor, Ali. I remember as a kid going to cousin in a sanatorium in Savoie. We were told she was very sick and could only see us through glass doors. I had geared myself to see a pale and forlorn wraith of a girl. Instead, this beautiful girl, lightly tanned, with pink cheeks and bright eyes smiled at us.
Anyway, thoughtful, I have this annoying habit lately of relating things that happen to me or that I heard about
to events of the distant past. I thing I'am aging rapidly. 16868. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 10:47:45 PM What do you thing about that? 16869. thoughtful - 10/4/2005 10:51:24 PM eh??? Speak up there you young whipper-snapper! I can't hear you! 16870. thoughtful - 10/4/2005 10:55:47 PM Here's a picture of me in my youth...
 16871. thoughtful - 10/4/2005 10:56:08 PM Ah yes, the good old days... 16872. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 10:57:09 PM Senility? oh, no...I'm still so young and, excuse the bragging, still so, so...well...active, you know...
16873. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 10:59:47 PM Oh, wait a sec...you mean deaf? That's okay, I can handle that.
16874. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 11:01:57 PM So cute, so darling, you were such a doll, I swear. 16875. thoughtful - 10/4/2005 11:10:15 PM Do you think? A lot of people told me I was a stuffed shirt... 16876. Magoseph - 10/4/2005 11:13:26 PM Nah, a doll, I say--the big blue eyes, the high aristocratic forehead, the long elegant fingers, just a doll you were. 16877. PelleNilsson - 10/4/2005 11:13:55 PM And is the sickly Flexy .. active .. too? 16878. alistairConnor - 10/4/2005 11:14:19 PM Mago... tu ne croies pas si bien dire!
About a week ago, there was an e-mail circulated at work, to gravely inform us that one of our colleagues had a potentially serious respiratory complaint, and to summon us to a meeting about it.
I was betting on bird flu... expecting to see the building quarantined... but no, only tuberculosis.
There it is. In six months I'll be romantically coughing blood.
