@Aylee that's a good question, I have absolutely no idea, but we have the very same expression in french "Malade comme un chien".
ReplyDeleteOkay, I googled it because I'm bored and curious. It's a phrase that dates back to at least the 17th century. It has its origins in the fact that dogs will willingly eat almost anything and be very sick (specifically vomiting) afterwards. So, "sick as a dog" means to vomit like one. Ew.
ReplyDeleteHAHA Aylee, then I guess I wasn't sick as a dog after all =P
ReplyDeleteJust a very very nasty cold/flu
The Riley books are AMAZING!!
ReplyDeleteI love that series so much. I like that they can be very steamy in some places, but it doesn't compromise the plot. I love the character development over the series, you can really see how the events affect Riley. Get started on those books, you'll love them!
Happy reading!
