I'm so vain.
For the first time in any time, I actually have a toothache. So sore I can't sleep, and my face swelled up this morning so I look like half a chipmunk. Or half my face looks like a chipmunk. Or my cheek has swollen up to look like the cheek of a chipmunk.
Whatever.
You know what I mean.
And I felt ugly.
I very rarely feel ugly. Dumpy, yes. Comical, often. But I usually still feel cute.
It wasn't a fun trip to work this morning. And by the time I got there I turned around and went back the other way to see a dentist with an emergency appointment.
The painkillers I've now got have a great side effect – everything is sooo funny.
Today in the library a bookshop owner was chatting to an author, and then asked me who was doing the introduction for this author's booktalk. I said it was the library manager, and he said to the author “Oooh the big kuana!”.
“the big koala?” asked the author.
I had to run away ‘cos I was laughing too much and I couldn’t correct the bookshop owner (he meant’ big kahuna’ for those wondering) ‘cos he’s a humourless bastard and likes to big-note himself in front of authors.
It probably wasn’t as funny as I thought. Everyone looked at me weird when I recounted the tale in the lunchroom.
It must be the painkillers.
I’ve got some serious antibiotics to take as well. Anyone want to go drinking?
Hahahahahahaha
Ha
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
