Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsMy wife has been pretty sick since Wednesday, but she was nice enough to push through and cut my hair tonight.
I'm taking her to the walk-in in the morning. I'm a little worried, because she never gets sick, and I'm hoping it's not Covid.
While she was cutting my hair, she said "Jesus, you're a hairy guy".
That reminded me of this song because of the "Hair throng, goo tongue" line, so I started serenading her with this version.
The first line is "For hither not", and that line makes me laugh because it is so non-sensical. She asked me what "For hither not" meant, and I said "You have to understand that they wrote this song in a horse barn that was converted into a recording studio while high on acid and while watching a belligerent stallion prance around in a neighboring field".
She kept admonishing me because I was laughing so hard that I was shaking and making her miss with the clippers.
I think I cheered her up a little. I hope she is going to get over this sickness soon...she sounds pretty rough. If I could take this sickness from her, I would.

She's had all of her shots except for RSV.
Thanks, yellow dahlia.

Thanks for sharing!

Also hope you take full advantage of all your hair clippings by putting them in Ziploc bags and selling them on Ebay.

Hope by now Mrs. Lucky is on the mend.

Glad to know all is well!
