cobra and other snakes

Ouch, I was bitten by a COBRA today for several hundred dollars that I can't help but think would be better spent going towards a few nice new dress shirts to interview in.

That said, if the interviews don't pan out, then I'll need the insurance for the inevitable stress induced medical emergency I'll suffer sometime in December. (Heart attack? Hopefully not, but an ulcer is a definite possibility.) Not to mention that medical mysteries like myself like to know that the doctor is an option at any given moment.

Then again, what if the only reason that the interviews fail are my lack of a nice new dress shirt? The kind I could've bought if it weren't for the need to feed the cobra?

Okay, I'm really not that stressed about this yet. Truth is that I've had the phrase "feed the cobra" stuck in my head ever since going over the 12 page, yawn inducing medical benefits statement this morning, and this was my chance to exorcise it.

Perhaps you *should* worry more about a nice dress shirt and less about strained metaphors...heh!

If you don't like metaphors that are strained enough to lose all the lumps and/or the occasionally overcooked pun, you are reading the wrong blog my friend!
