Sigh.

I stayed home from work today (don’t worry, I called for a substitute first). I have slept for about 12 hours since last night. Still tired.

However, the saddest thing is that it’s Talk Like a Pirate Day and I missed it. Luckily the kids probably didn’t know, so I can read them my pirate book tomorrow. Aye matey!

  1. oh, becky! i hope you feel better soon. sleep more, drink some grog (or tea), and watch a good pirate movie.

  3. Aye, what a tragic fate to befall ye. Get better or we’ll keelhaul ye!

    I just realized that colloquial Scottish sounds a lot like Pirate. Aye, it does indeed.

  4. What a perfect opportunity to watch Little Women and all six hours of Anne of Green Gables/Avonlea! I hope you feel better tomorrow.

  5. Well Jeni, that may be because the stereotypical pirate has a Cornish accent based on the performance of Long John Silver by actor Robert Newton in the 1950 Disney version of “Treasure Island”.

    And now you know.
