Today’s favorite lyric:

One hand on the trigger of the telephone

Can you name that tune?

This morning I walked into my co-workers office (my boss is out today) and said, “I am telling you this because I believe that, as my co-worker, you deserve the complete and unvarnished truth: I am currently on the winning side of fighting a migraine. If, at any time, I slip to the losing side, I will inform you immediately because I’m never there long before TKO. But, as I said, for the sake of complete honesty, I may or may not be here this afternoon. I know that totally makes your day a little unsure, but, again, I’m just being honest.”

He said, “Oh. Ok.”

It was a little unfulfilling. I mean, I put THOUGHT into that speech! I practiced it in my head before walking in! Nevermind that it came out as, “Um…I’m fighting a migraine, so the light in my office is out, but I’m still trying to actually work. Just so you know.” I still thought I deserved, well, something better than “Oh. OK.”

So I rewarded my honesty and mostly unvarnished truth with a visit to Que Sera Sera. Reading her ‘about’ page, I found the interveiw she did with Leah at LeahPeah where I discovered that she used to write print ads for things like the Long Honker Goose Call. So, of course, I had to click the link and see if it actually was a goose call. And, as you can see from the print part of the ad, it is. But, seriously…I just can’t see the red-neck hunter boys I know putting their mouth on that thing! I can’t see me putting my mouth on that thing!

But it made me laugh, and that’s a good thing on a migraine day.
