Unexpected Consequences
Today I was feeling better, thank the light. Still very tender, but I wasn’t in pain. Though my coworkers did say I was quite pale today. But I got a good night’s sleep and was actually awake all day today… what a terrific idea. Too bad I’m not late shift more often.

Tonight we went out for dinner. Den told me that they had ordered up a special dish of rack of lamb for the dinner, but he wasn’t so certain I would like that.
I said, “Probably not.” Then I thought, lamb. “Ummm, no. Definitely not.”
Den suddenly knew what I meant. “Oh. Oh. Yeah.” Silence. “I think we might be taking this symbolism a little too far.” Another pause. “But now that you said that, I don’t think I can have that, either.”
Next time we’re going to have to plan a little bit better when choosing an animal.
Hoping you won’t need an animal next time, but maybe not a chicken? How about a bunny rabbit? I don’t know anyone that can eat bunny rabbits.
Cows … definitely out.
wow. I’m sorry. cripes. :(
hope you only have to choose an animal for your rainbow baby. then it can be something you wouldn’t really WANT to eat, like a …ummm…mmm. hmm.
(mental blank)
oh wait… an echidna! Not easy on the tongue, but they ARE cute and totally inedible (unlike the previous suggestion of cows.)
not easy on the tongue…ha. I’m a genius with the crappy puns.
Did you know they sell pee sticks at the dollar store?!
