“HOW YA’ DOIN’?”

Tuesday, February 27, 2007

“How ya’ doin’?” (Interpretation: “How are you doing?”)

The answer is almost always: “Fine, I’m just fine.”

The truth: “Not so good. My back aches, my stomach doesn’t feel right and I’m just generally a mess.”

Like yesterday—I felt like crapola so I stayed in bed all day.

Today I feel a little better and I will be out and about. People will ask, “How Ya’ Doin’?”

I will lie. I will say, “Fine, I’m just fine.”
