Hot Tea (3.3)

Being sick is annoying as it is, so me being sick I thought I would make myself some tea to make myself feel somewhat better. I decided to put my tea in a to-go cup and go shopping with my mom. Sitting at a red light I thought would be a good time for me to take a sip, since it probably cooled off by now. As I am going to take a sip, the light turns green which led to an increased force of extremely hot liquid to burn my tongue. Every curse word imaginable came out of my mouth as a way of dealing with the amount of pain I was in. So here I was already dealing with being sick, now I had to deal with a burnt tongue.

Cliched Metaphors:

Like a kid in a candy store

Dead as a doornail

Plenty of fish in the sea

All hands on deck

An apple a day keeps the doctor away

Another day another dollar

Apple of my eye
