The Sixth Sheik's Sixth Sheep's Sick

Well, I thought of my sixth weird thing. It's not as good as dreaming in Turkish, but it'll have to do.

6. My whole life, I have categorized pain as either round or pointy. I didn't realize that this was a standard for me until I was well into adulthood and that nobody else ever seemed to mention this quality. I have tried hard to explain it, especially to my sister Shelley. The best I have been able to come up with is: you take Advil for round pain, and aspirin for pointy pain.



Anybody? Anybody?

And yes, I AM home sick today, although I am neither a sheik nor a sheep.

sorry to hear you are not feeling well... is it round or pointy?

Never heard of the round/pointy pain thing, but it makes sense.

I'm incredibly tired this morning, and it's a pointy tired which means if anyone bothers me, they are going to get something pointy in their eye.

Yvonne, I would love to know more about how your mind works... can't get in to see you, though.
