Ha and Gah

Ha!

  • This morning, I found an email from my current company in my Inbox. It congratulated me on my forthcoming 5 year anniversary, and invited me to select an award of recognition for the time that I've spent at the corporation. My last day there? September 28.
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
  • I had to pick up a dead bird from the walkway leading up to my front door and throw it (in a plastic bag in a plastic bag) into the trash this afternoon.

Please pardon my pedestrian perceptiveness, but I fail to see how the label 'Adulthood' pertains to either ha or gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

If picking up and disposing of a dead bird isn't an adult responsibility, I don't know what is.

Do you know, I had to do the very same thing with a very large gopher in my old postage-stamp backyard a couple years ago. But it was more a feeling of hwaaaaaaaaaah than gah.

Oh, gaaaaaaaaahhhhhh. I'm still skeeved out by the whole thing. The ants! The ants!

You probably took away their dinner. In my case, I probably took away my neighbours' dinner (neighbours from h*ll). In any case, it's time for my dinner - not that I have much of an appetite now!
