Famous Last Words

There are some things you should never ever say out loud.

As soon as the words were coming out of my mouth, I knew I was doomed.

Last Saturday I mentioned to a friend, "Nobody's been sick in our house since January."

Oh yes, you know what happened next.

Monday morning I woke up feeling sore. By noon I was slightly feverish with mild nausea. By early afternoon I was parked by the toilet throwing up stuff I didn't even know I had eaten.

That lasted well into the evening and I spent the rest of the night curled up on the couch with a big bowl cupped in one arm.

Next time I'll know better. Never mention your good health to anyone.

Oh, and knocking on wood doesn't work.

Well, since your son is home schooled, your daughter or wife must be to blame!

Feel better soon.

Next time say "I haven't won the lottery since January".
Get well soon.
