Ode to 'Politeness'

By A.A. Milne

If people ask me,
I always tell them:
"Quite well, thank you. I'm very glad to say."
If people ask me,
I always answer,
"Quite well, thank you, how are you today?"
I always answer,
I always tell them,
If they ask me
Politely ...
BUT SOMETIMES

I wish

That they wouldn't.

Helloooo?

Is there anybody out there?
You all don't want to talk anymore?

YAY

rkid#1 and I are probably going to get an apartment or a house together (if I can manage to get a job lined up ... which is a frustrating thing to try and do when you have no idea when you can start). We're going to have fun. I'm excited. I can't wait to see my babies!
