Cheeky

What I saw in the mirror this morning.

If you're middle-aged and you've been sick, nobody walks up to you and asks how you're doing; instead, they say "What happened???"  If you're sick or overtired, you look sick or overtired.

In four days of having a cold, my cheeks have grown thin and gaunt yet my butt is exactly the same size it was a week ago.  These are two facts I deeply resent.

I think I caught it from you. My head feels full of stuff I don't want in there. But I will never have thin cheeks no matter what

Lucky you, my cheeks remain the same chubby no matter what!! Hope you get well soon!

I'm sorry you're sick but I'm glad you still have your sense of humor! Yours is the funniest of the 20 or so blogs I've read today!

Thanks, ladies! @Juneli, at my age, thin cheeks don't make me look like a fashion model, they make me look... not so good. Alas. :)
