Howdy all!
I knew what Jewish Penicillin (aka Chicken Soup) was from watching Steven Kings, “The Stand”.
Fran’s father came down with the super flu and she brought him a tray with “Jewish Penicillin—Chicken Soup to the great unwashed.” I get the penicillin part but not being Jewish, I’m guessing “the great unwashed” is any one who is not Jewish. Is that right?
I didn’t know Jewish people were the washed people either. Who knew?
Word of warning: Never, Never, NEVER touch a Mexican Prickly Poppy. I thought I was going to have to call 911 because I was having a very bad reaction after having grabbed one by accident because it was hidden by other weeds I was pulling.
I’ve lived here over 30 years and this was the first time I encountered that plant.
Needless to say, it is toast now. I bought some Round Up and sprayed it with about half a bottle.
In other news, I heard from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regs. I just happened to send an email asking where my case was and was told that it went before the board THIS morning but he didn’t tell me if I won or any details except that I would get the results by mail in about 3 MONTHS!
I sent another email asking if it was a great secret or could I at least be told what the outcome was. Geezzz sometimes I feel like I’m pulling teeth.
Speaking of pulling teeth, tomorrow is the dreaded day that I get the one with the crown pulled. Not looking forward to that at all.
Sigh. My life is a soap opera and I’m the star!
Lastly, we had a fly at work today so the conversation turned to the movie. Francis said she just loved the remake and when I told her I sometimes posted on the same board as the writer, she asked that I pass that along.
