Limping along on the edginess
without my crutches
Finding my proud
in amongst the grumpy
Feelin' a little froggy
All aboard my last nerve
be my guest
Put my addictions to the test
My wicked wit
is waiting to rip
me into gales of laughter
at your expense
My cut you to size
could use the exercise
Feelin' mean
and like pokin' fun
at anyone
within reach of my sharp tongue
Bold and brassy
and over the top sassy
Just playing hard
acting out my frustration
Missing my nicotine laced
oral gratification

Haha Whoa! I'm hanging back and not saying much about this one, my friend, at least I hope you remember I'm your PiP friend. I don't blame you, I know what quitting smoking made me feel like.

Ya'll are safe, it is my family that is bearing the brunt of the storm.  Frankly, I think I'm always a delight to be with, but that's just me...

P.S. I don't miss the cough
