Ever have a day that feels like Andy DuFresne's...only you feel like you're crawling upstream toward the prison instead of escaping to freedom?
Well, to quote a different character (John Coffey) who was just trying to make things better in another prison movie (The Green Mile),
"Awful tired, boss. Dog tired."

Both of those movies are great! Tom Hanks is a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteI do know what you mean by "Awful tired, Boss. Dog tired."
Here is wishing better days to you!
Yeah, crawling upstream towards prison pretty much sums it up these days.
ReplyDeleteHeh... both your quote and youtube are from Stephen King stories. I guess the man knows all about this.
There's a light at the end of the tunnel!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTake a nap first, then go from there....
:)
Well now that the children have escaped from the cage, maybe you and I should climb in and throw away the key. So glad I bought a big cage!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
Longest night of your life eh?? [[[u]]]
ReplyDeletewith my kids' return home, i definitely feel like an exhausted salmon hopping up the waterfall
ReplyDeleteKnow the feeling. Boy do I know the feeling...
ReplyDeleteWell, if it's possible, put those tie-dye besocked feet up and relax a spell. Think cool thoughts, as Satchel Paige once said.
ReplyDeleteswimming upstream against current and feeling the reprocussions afterwards... HUGS!!! You're awesome!
ReplyDeleteA big, stiff drink. Make it a double.
ReplyDeleteOk my friend, I am swimming upstream myself....maybe its like the phase of the moon or something?? Like lots of people are having a tough time. Going to read my horiscope.......
ReplyDelete"crawling upstream toward the prison. . ."
ReplyDeleteVery evocative expression, Lime. . .
But, so sorry you're so frustrated. Would a {hug} help?
I am so there right now.
ReplyDelete(((((Huge Hug)))))
ReplyDelete(-: hang in there! maybe you will win an Oscar for your performance in Lime's Shawshank Redemption
ReplyDelete"Even salmon get rewarded after swimming upstream."
ReplyDeleteNot necessarily Lime... Some of them get eaten by bears before they ever get to spawn.
Try to steer clear of the bears, okay?
:-)
I do feel like that, right now. Yesterday. And the day before that. You have quoted two of my most favorite Stephen King stories, and seeing that clip made me want to see the whole movie again right now. *sigh* I'd better get back to work, looking for work.
ReplyDeleteOh, what is the cause of this frustration, toots?
ReplyDeleteFunny to see Swedish sub title, as I'm in Sweden right now. Quite good translated :-)
ReplyDeletea great moment from a great movie...
