My mom sent me a Herman cartoon that she cut out of the paper. It's a picture of one old guy in a suit sitting in an executive chair across a desk from another old guy in a suit. Old guy #2 is wearing a spotted, tall party hat with the big fringe around the bottom, and it's tilting slightly to one side. He's saying, "I always wear my lucky hat for job interviews."
My mom wrote a note on the edge of the cartoon: Erin--This may be why you never get the job.
I laughed out loud, and every time I look at it, it makes me smile. It was a welcome light note in a week of bad news, bronchitis, and bumming out. The lesson? Never, ever lose your sense of humor.
