And your week?

A friend asked earlier how my week went? It was pretty uneventful, but great nevertheless. I am again grateful. Here are a few snippets:

Friday 2:
Doctor: I believe that your minor aches and pains is just age. As we get older...

Med. Student: But, doctor, he doesn't look anywhere near his age.

Doctor: But, he is ___.

Med. Student: But, doctor, he's in relatively great health, and looks amazing. Why mention...

Doctor: (Stares at Med Student probably wondering why he hasn't shut the F up?)

ME: I like Med. Student a Lot!

Friday:
The doctor's appointment...

Middle-age Random Woman: (Fanning herself furiously with a magazine) Damn, it's hot in here. Are you hot?

Me: I've been told.

RW: (Scowls and continues to fan)

*I was actually going to say "Sorry, I don't have that." 😜

Thursday:
Sneezing and sniffling all day-
I opted to will it away rather than DayQuil it away. Not all of my choices are winners. 🌠

Wednesday:
Sign in clothing store dressing room: "MUST WEAR UNDERGARMENTS WHEN TRYING ON CLOTHING."

Other than the obvious, does the store realize that as a card carrying germaphobe it doesn't take much for me to run?

Tuesday 2:
I swear, when I die I will spend purgatory on hold with an Indian customer service operator who after a lengthy wait only offers suggestions that I tried three hours before calling.

"Mr. Bryant the third, please calm down. I am truly attempting to address your problem. Now let's start by clearing your browser's history. Do you know how to do that?"

You read that with an accent didn't you? 😒

Tuesday:
I just finished rewriting/editing someone's speech on of all things, rice. I love rice, Basmati, Jasmine, Brown, Wild, Long Grain... Along with pasta, it is a shamelessly versatile food. Rice and writing don't just come together on their own. I don't believe in coincidences, which is why, I believe that the universe brought this to me. What fun! 😂

Monday:
The first actual friend that I made after high school sent me a friend request here 7 or 8 years ago. It was nice to reconnect, and oddly we found ourselves in the same town. For this many years I have been reminding myself to get together with him outside of social media. He died yesterday.

The lesson here is obvious.

Have a good one!
