I had a terrible day today

You’ve had that kind of day, too. Everything that had been festering around for a while decided it was all going to blow at the same time, and then, it’s all my fault. Like I was engaged in some cosmic plan to ruin humanity or something. Because I have that kind of power, don’t you know.

The thing is, I think I gave as good as I got, in a polite, uptight kind of way. Which is why I am sharing this email with you. My father, he-of-the-insufferable-number-of email-forwards fame sent me this a few days ago, and as usual, I ignored it until I had some time to decide if it was going straight into the trash, or what. As it happens, it’s a gem that’s perfect for the day.

Quote of the day:
“Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she’ll give you a baby.
If you give her a house, she’ll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she’ll give you a meal.
If you give her a smile, she’ll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.
So, if you give her any crap, be ready …”
