Weathering the Storm
Euro 2000. Heartbroken.
*****
English Weather in a nutshell :
1) The sun only ever comes out when you go indoors
2) Only in England can one catch a chill in the height of English summer, lying on the ground in a park catching some sun.
*****
Bemusedly sitting on the couch being slowly squished to death under the weight of my tormentress, (who, while stick thin, is about a head taller than myself) my oxygen deprived brain struggles to come up with a retort suitable for the occasion.
Number of times facing this scenario : 0
Number of suitable quips for extrication : 0
"help..." I hear myself saying, weakly.
I'm convinced she just likes scaring the hell out of me. That's it. That's probably why she pokes me in the sides in front of patients too, everytime she walks past... right?
