The Week that Sucked

Published by Ree at 7:18 pm under Family

Ballard Street is one of my favorite comics. And this one? Had me cracking up.

It has not been a good week for the Hotfessional. Mr. Hot and I did NOT like each other this week. Between last Friday’s post and yesterday? Twenty words. Tops. I think Dickhead and Bitch made up a goodly portion of those 20.

Work sucked monkey balls what with the layoffs and the reorganizations. I’ve stressed myself into a massive canker sore outbreak - with a side order of zits. I did lose 6 lbs….mostly because I was certain I was going to hurl if I got near food.

Annnnyyyyywwwwaaaayyyyy - Mr. Hot and I? - we made up. Yes, make-up kissing and rubbing was involved, and it was all very, very nice…well, except for that canker sore….and today when I ran across the Ballard Street comic I thought:

I need to show a little appreciation to all of the people who mad me laugh and
think and got me through these past few days when I would have loved, more than anything, to just get into the fetal position for 10 or 12 hours. Here they are, in no
particular order….

  • Badger - because of her reading list - which made me smile - because I’ve read so many of those same books - over and over again.
  • Cupcake - because she posted about Huntington, WV - and when I commented about the Holiday Inn where Mr. Hot and I used to ‘hang out’ between classes, she answered. It brought back memories of when we were young and I used to shake at the thought of never seeing him again.
  • Blackbird - because she admitted that she doesn’t wash her face every night - and sometimes I think everyone else is perfect. It helps that they’re not.
  • Crystal - because she’s just freakin’ hilarious….
  • And last, but certainly not least - Amalah - to whom I dedicate this next Ballard Street - because I got so wrapped up in her archives and sharing her joys and sorrows, that I temporarily forgot about mine:

Thank you all so very much. We may never meet face to face, but you all are some of the funniest writers I’ve read. Put yourselves up on that little pedestal for a few minutes.

—- And Mr. Hot? Yea, he makes me laugh too. And for the record? He was pretty much right. —-

    Isn’t it amazing how virtual people can make you smile?

    I thought of you as we made the return trip through Huntington. Alas, we didn’t revisit the Ho-Inn (no pun intended … but I do love saying it that way, especially now that I know what a “study aid” it is), but I believe I actually yelled, “Hey, kids! Look! A sign for Marshall University, Home of the Thundering Herd!”
