Claudia Myers column: 'I know what I said but that's not what I meant' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I told a friend that I was feeling “droopy” then wondered if she knew what I meant. So, here’s a small list of phrases and words that have become part of my vocabulary, either made-up or adopted. Feel free to add them to yours, if they’re not already there. “Droopy” — how you feel when your energy level is really low. Your knuckles are dragging. This leads to “lying down before you fall down”, in other words, a nice nap. “Feeling a little Peak-ed” — not quite at that droopy stage. Can also be us
Claudia Myers column: Please pass the cough syrup (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I don’t know about you, but when I am sick, my hair hurts. Some people have excruciatingly tender skin, which accounts for the wild-eyed look they get when someone approaches within touching or patting distance. “There, there, I hope you’re feeling better,” they say. “What can I do for you?” they ask, with all the well-meaning intentions in the world, while all the time your inner self is shouting “Ow, ow, ow!” “Where do you think you got it?

Claudia Myers column: Bug me a little (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My 3-year-old great grand-daughter and our 10-month-old puppy have something in common. Yes, they both are little girls, but more than that, they both are fascinated by bugs. Our little girl gets up from her nap rarin’ to go back outside right now and “hunt for bugs.” Our pup chases the moths at night and follows the ants by day. She pounces on any other tiny critters she sees. I’m having a hard time convincing her not to pounce on wasps and bees. The only difference is our great-granddaughter c
Claudia Myers column: Just a few clichés (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“It was a dark and stormy night,” as Snoopy likes to tap out on his little typewriter, starting his “Great American Novel” yet again. Clichés and more clichés — or once-witty utterances that, with repetition after repetition, have lost their power to interest or amaze. And according to many writing coaches, should be avoided at all cost. But, the other reason that clichés get old and over-used is that, more often than not, they just perfectly fit the situation. My husband likes to say, “roll Wit
Claudia Myers column: Have you ever wondered who was the first — ? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Who was the first person to look at a lobster, crawling along the beach, with its hard shell of armor and its big claws and make the decision to scoop it up and eat it? Was it a fight to the finish? I’m assuming that fool-hardy person didn’t have a big pot of boiling water with him. And you probably know that the Pilgrims identified lobsters as “insects” and refused to eat them. You probably also know that the first colony in Virginia failed because the settlers ran out of food and starved to de
