Sayings 'n' Stuff

Dog-tired right? What is up with that saying? Is it only because the sweat out of their mouth via their tongue? that's kinda' lame. Lets change that and fast, 'cus it's gettin' a bit old. Owl-tired, bat-tired, or raccoon-tired, note the nocturnal thing goin' on here? Plus with the whole raccoon-tired thing you have the added effect of a dual- or tri- meaning. You know since their fur is visually black around their eyes they're like a burglar for example or extremely tired 'cus dark bags around the eyes indicating a drunken stupor, sleeping till 2pm 'cus you're really sick, or simple for being plan old tired form doing too much of something. Hold on! SLOTH-TIRED, that could be good too, but plays off how they are simply slow moving and could therefore be "slow" and "tired".

Okay, the verdict is in...

and the winner is...

Raccoon-tired!!!

You just wait... it'll catch on. Try it, come on, try it. I didn't hear you.

Do it like my second grade teacher, she pointed out how I looked like a raccoon because I hadn't had enough sleep the night before (I was so embarrassed 'cus she said this in front of all the other kids, I wish I had given her a piece of my mind, and then i was thinking how i didn't have fur, sleep during the day, or wash my food in a stream before eating it, after it possibly came from a neighborhood garbage can). Oh, well. I was eight, what was I gonna' do? Insult her 'cus she was tall or had glasses?
