Sniffle

So Kate and I were hit this weekend with a terrible cold that's been travelling around the school. However, it's really just a test for my absolutely incredible immune system, it needs some practice fighting illness. Anyways, it reminded me of a song I wrote when I was really little about having a cold. It's really a genius song, and sadly I can't share the tune with you seeing as my site consists of merely visual things as opposed to any audio, and also I probably won't sing it for you if you happen to pass by me. But go ahead and make up your own tune.

Sniffles and Snuffles

Sniffles and Snuffles in the air

Cough-es and sneezes everywhere

Hot little hands and cold little toes

Yucky feeling tummy, runny nose

Paper cup, medicine, yucky pills too

Which one sounds the best to you?

So that was my brilliant song. However, my song writing/singing days are now over (because as I've told you before, certain family members used to think I was a little tone deaf, oh wait, no, tone dumb, when I was little).

When I advised you to make up your own tune to that song, that reminded me also of all the stupid childrens books that are supposed to be songs and always lead to really awkward situations. I'm sure Kate knows what I'm talking about; you start reading the book to the kid and either the kid or the mom chimes in to tell you you're supposed to sing the lyrics, and then over the painful silence of the room you have to sing some really unappealing tune.

What else, ah yes, I went swimming this weekend with Kate and Tyler. It was the refreshing kind of cold that chills you to the bone, literally. It was very nice.

Note: Al told me earlier today to check out my car when I got a chance, and I checked it out after school and she wrote "LIB" on the back of the side mirrors, haha. Thanks Al! Posted by lib at October 4, 2005 04:40 PM
