Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for October 29, 2020

AKA “Twitter”.

The Bluebird of Unhappiness.

Worry is interest paid in advance on a debt you may never owe.

Awoke in the middle of the night last night and started working out issues that I may have to deal with IF I get the job I interviewed for early this week. I lost 3 hours of sleep working for a company that isn’t (yet?) paying me.

I had an aunt who would worry if she had nothing to worry about. Her daughter turned out the same way.

Close the window.

The Bluebird of unhappiness just $hit on your dream…

Ah, a rare talking bluebird.

Now that’s scary.

Remember that one comment you made to your friend 2 years ago and he gave you a weird look?

Sleeping with the widow open will do that.. bluebirds aren’t nearly as bad as bats though. Dang bats will bring on nightmares.

Ready for sleep? Did you know every C in Pacific Ocean is pronounced differently?

Where’s dat ol’ puddytat? Oh, Sylvester…

It usually comes to me about 3 am.

Anybody have some birdseed and a slingshot handy?

Booze cures a lot of unnecessary thinking.

Okay, little bird, here’s something for you to worry about… I sleep with a gun next to my bed. Now get off my window sill.

he’s been getting around a lot more recently

“Oh, just fly up my nose already.”

I feel I’ve seen him far more than I’ve ever seen his Happiness cousin. Especially this year.
