Emily's Various Insights

Don't you love how when said with different inflections how one sentence can mean something completely different?

I've been working quite a few hours lately, with several 11 hour days. I knew when chatting with him on AIM that when he said, "Man, you do that for 5 days and you'll have a 55 hour work week" that he was being sarcastic.

Laura, on the other hand, said she would not have read the sarcasm into that. To us Midwestern mortals, a 55 hour work week sounds long.
