Random

So I went for a run today... Usually they are pretty uneventful. Well today was just odd. It started out with me getting chased down by a dog. Ok it was a little dog but they can still inflict pain! Well later on I turned into the park and look over and there is ths nasty little muskrat. I look up and there is on old man sitting on a bench and he is filming the muskrat. Who films muskrats?! I guess he is intrigued with muscrats, personally I don't get it. I continue running to discover a little girl following me on her bike. She keeps on following me. She finally stops in front of me and says "You wanna race?" Well why not. I told her I would. I won. haha Not much to brag about the girl was probably 5. She then called time out and made me stop. She asked why I was running. I told her because I liked to. She said I was weird. She then rode off. Well I guess I'm weird, but atleast I haven't resorted to filming muskrats!!

Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground!

Well I hope you don't mind, but yet again I'm telling you a story involving a patient. I hope you don't get sick of these because I sure don't! Old people are hilarious. Well most of them.... Anyways my day began by going to the dentist. I unfortunately had to get some cavities filled. (Exciting so far right). My dentist gave me 6 shots. I was fine with that, I didn't want to fill anything. Well I was hating those 6 shots after I was done. I got out of the dentist at 10:10. I scheduled to see my first patient at 10:30. Perfect. Except half my lip is excessively huge and I can't feel it. My chin up to the bottom of my eye was numb. I look liked I was having a stroke. Well I saw my first patient and he just laughed at me the entire time. My speech was slightlly slurred to due to the lack of control of my tongue and lips. Well, now here comes my favorite part of my day. I was at my second patients house and we were walking the laps around her house. All the sudden I hear an Oops! First thought, patient is falling. Gotta catch them. Then she starts laughing hysterically. I look down and her pants had fallen off. Oh man, I don't think I had ever laughed so hard. We made a real team. This old lady standing with her pants down to her ankles just in her lovely depends, and me looking like i'm having a stroke, because only half of my face thought this was funny, the other side in a constant droop and frown. I love my job, who else gets asked out by old men, old women aiming the snow from the snow blower to hit me, walking with an old person and there pants fall down, being told I look like elvis... I don't have to many dull days.

Old Women + snowblowers = BAD!

Well I'm not going to say this was my favorite day of my life. I wake up and head out to my car and I've got to brush off a foot of snow. It's April! What is this?! Anyways, I head of to my first patient and I have to park a ways up the road because it's a really narrow street, and no room for my car unless I want it to get hit. Anyways... I see my patient and start heading back to my car. On my way there is this old lady clearing her driveway with her snowblower. Well she has it aimed right in the direction I'm walking. So I as I switch directions to avoid the flying chunks of snow. I look at her and she has this menacing look in her eye. Well old people occasionally look like that so I continue on my way. All the sudden I'm getting smack by flying snow! The woman changed the aim of her snow to make it hit me!! I look back at her and she's still got that look on her face. What did I do? I've got no idea. Well to finish of the rest of my day, at another house my patients dog almost got a little frisky with my leg when I was sitting there. Oh boy! Anyways I continue to go see my patients and the random snow storms througout the day are making me rather angry. Well I made it to my last patient with no further incident. Until I walked out of there home. I guess I didn't notice a stair and I decided to take a nice dive to the sidewalk. Lovely. Well now I'm off to the Jazz game, I sure hope they win. I need something to make this day better. haha

Land of Oz!




Well friends, it is official I'm going to Australia!
The plane tickets were purchased as of yesterday!





Don't worry my plane will be a little more sturdy than this little guys. I'm just using him as an example to express my excitment for this trip. And that fact that this is how I feel about airplanes and their serious lack of leg room. I'm going with my sister Amber. The kind soul and her husband let me use their air miles so I only had to pay 200 for a plane ticket that should have cost somewhere around a good 1600.



Yup this is where we're flying into. SYDNEY! After that I'm going to see me some little creepers like these guys! Don't you just want to hug them!


Along with seeing some sweet animals, we're going to be doing some of this:



And snorkeling! Wahoo! That's just a few of the things we plan on doing! I just can't explain how stoked I am!

Billy Joel and Elton John




February 19th was the day! We got the tickets in June of last year, so me and 5 friends have been waiting quite some time to watch some old men sing. The concert was originally supposed to be November 20th. But guess what they both got sick. But they rescheduled! The concert was a blast! Here's a funny story though. So I've got an annoying laugh. End of story. No I'm kidding. Well every time I laughed two people who were sitting in front of us would look back and glare at me! Well I had laughed a lot. Apparently they couldn't take it anymore, they glared at me one last time and left!! Well at least when they left I didn't have to worry about kicking them because of the serious lack of leg room!
Here's something funny one of my friends came up with:
Tickets to the show: 70 bucks
Dinner at Crown Burger: 9 bucks
Filling up the tank of gas for the drive: 35 bucks
A night screaming my head off watching a gay man sing: Priceless
And priceless it was!

Here's some pics.

Oh my WRONG!

I officially had the most awkward situation during work on friday. Here's how it goes: I was just finishing up at one of my patients house, told her I would give her a call on Sunday to see when I would come see her on Monday. She's got a 57ish year old son, that lives at her home to take care of her if she needs it. Alright let me explain this guy. Well he's old for starters, also his teeth are decaying and just nasty brown and look like they're going to rot out of his mouth. He always smells like tobacco and carries a thing of chew with him all the time. He also wears these nasty little short shorts. I don't know exactly where he came from the rest of the family are really nice and clean. Ok so here's how the conversation goes after I told them I'd call.

Me: Alright I'll see you guys on Monday.

Nasty Man: Well I'll walk you outside I've got to check the mail anyway.

We start to walk outside. I'm a ways ahead of him.

Nasty Man: So what do you young people do for fun these day?

Me: I don't know, anything.

Nasty Man: Do you guys ever go out to eat?

Me: Ya, foods good.

Nasty Man: Well good, because I'd like to take you out to eat.

By now I'm already at my car and he's caught up to me, cornering me into my car.

Me: Umm... No

Nasty Man: I know there is a big age difference but I'd really like to ask you out.

Me: No it's alright I'm fine.

Nasty Man: I know you're fine, that's why I'm asking you out.

Me: NO!

Nasty Man: Well if you change your mind you know where I'm at.

At this point I throw my car into reverse and speed out of there. Once I was done screaming in my car. I gave my good ol' boss a call, and let him know what happened. No way I'm going back over there! It made me mad, I really like to go see his mom, and he goes and ruins it the sicko!
What is he thinking! And he was thinking it was the age difference that was holding me back. hahaha the man needs to learn a thing or two. Holy Wrong!

I look like who??

Alright so I started seeing this patient for the first time this week. When I first went over there, she say "Do I know you?" Nope, pretty sure I've never met this woman before in my life. Every time I go over there she like, I have to know you, or you look a lot like someone I know. Well today I go over to see her and in the middle of the exercises she yells out "I figured it out! I don't know you, You look like a young Elvis!" I laughed my head off. She's convinced I look like him. Here take a look. Decide for yourselves my friends.




Ya I don't think so...

Oh and p.s I got a library card. haha
