I'm a Super Hero
Jul. 21st, 2005 09:11 amQueasy.
It's a funny word, isn't it?
It sounds like a mixture of quick and easy, but there's nothing terrifically quick or easy about queasy. Queasy just bides its time, soaking my palate in a virtual bath of cold grease and half-digested breakfast, a ghost of stomach acid floating through my memory, and all the while, my stomach roils like a washing machine on slo-mo agitate.
And somehow, I have the remarkable ability to sound bright and cheery on the telephone. Maybe it's my superpower.
I'm a bit dubious of my ability to keep it up for much longer, though. It may be another leave-early day for me.
