Ethelitis!
Many moons ago, when I was first hired by the USPS, there was another carrier in our office whose name was Ethel. She was a lovely lady who was rapidly nearing retirement age. She was famous for being frequently heard uttering the words "I'm sick of it!" under her breath. And so because of this it is said that anyone feeling particularly sick of it is suffering from a case of Ethelitis.
I have come down with a BAD case of Ethelitis...
My symptoms:
I am sick of this cold weather!
I am sick of not being able to take a bath.
I am sick of this goddamned wheelchair!
I am sick of insurance companies...
I am sick of feeling that I have no control over my own life....
A partial cure is down the road in about 12 1/2 days....
But a little bit of this would go a LONG way in treating my symptoms until then...
Well, I could wrap him around myself to keep warm, and THAT would make me forget about all of the other stuff!
