No blog yesterday because I was in bed sick as a dog for most of the day. I caught Megan and Lori's stomach flu. I'm pretty sure that I got it when I was playing around with Megan and she stuck her hand in my mouth. I'm back at work today but I'm still feeling pretty bad. Hopefully I will feel a lot better by tomorrow.
Posted by jherr at January 23, 2004 10:47 AMAre dogs by nature sick? where on earth did that phrase come from I wonder. Our dogs have in the past been pretty sick, but its not a usual occurrence. In Ripley's case I understand as Lazy as a Dog, or in the case of some little dogs I get as hyper as a dog, but why did "As Sick as a Dog" survive. Maybe someone had a really sick dog, got sick themselves and said I feel as sick as that dog, and then like the phone game it changed as it was relayed.
Things that make us go hummmm?!
