But do you mean it? Like when a doctor tells you this (whatever) may cause slight discomfort. Or when my mother used to say just before she swatted me that ‘it hurts me more.’ Uh, in which universe? I remember it always hurt me until I turned 13, grew 4 inches in one summer, and realized my arms were longer. {sly grin}
Don has a list of ‘honey-dos’ that he promises to get done by the weekend. He just hasn’t decided which one–so it really isn’t a lie, right?
“I’ll call you,” or “Let’s keep in touch.” Bwhahaha. Those are pretty big kiss-off lines. Now I think it has changed to “Facebook me!” or Twitter without telling you how to reach them.
I know there are many more that escape my pea-brain at the moment. One line I that I do say often to those who I hold in my heart is ‘love you.’ And I mean it.
When Bob gave shots to kids, they’d ask, “Is it gonna hurt?” and he’d say, “Yeah, it’s gonna hurt like heck!”
I need to change my “I’m gonna do . . .” to “I wanna do . . .” Since so often, I get nothing done.
LOL about Bob and the shots.
You are gonna do it, just the getting ’round to when.
I hear y’all! Today, I intended to get a lot of stuff done, but other stuff got in the way. *sigh* BTW–I have always told my kidlet that a shot will hurt. That type of lying is non-productive because you will be proven a liar in a matter of seconds!
Margaret–
Thought the same myself. Nope, didn’t get as much as I’d planned.
