sorry it's been a while...

I wish i had a good excuse for not blogging....I'm just going to say that life got in the way. It was quarter time, I was still sick, so if I wasn't working all I wanted to do was sleep. So that is what I did! I am finally starting to feel better - after two weeks. And I think my staff are better too, after I infected my entire audit room. No kidding - they were all a little mad that i had infected them with this virus. The client called our room the quarantine room. They wouldn't come in - just stood at the door and talked to us from there!
How do I know it was a virus, well, I went to a doctor. I am going to call him the Cheap Jewish doctor -- I know, I know, it sounds bad, but let me explain. First of all, he is Jewish. So that part is fact. The second thing is that when he was telling me that i had a virus, he started asking me what I was taking....so I told him. He starts in on "that medicine is crap. it is way too expensive. now what you need is to go to sams and just buy you a big bottle of tylenol pm. it cures everything. I have this bottle that i bought about 2 years ago and my family is STILL trying to finish it all. but you don't have to buy the tylenol version, buy the cheap version. its the same thing. and forget that medicine you've been taking, and prescriptions are too expensive. you just need to go get you some sudafed, not the real stuff, but like the wal-mart brand, it's cheaper, and take that."
I am not exageratting at all. I am probably leaving part of the conversation off, but that is enough to get the gist of it. I was cracking up. This was the first time I had seen him (and probably my last) but at least it was entertaining.
The other favorite part of the visit was when this exchange happened:
Him: do you brush your teeth?
Me: yes (thinking, what, do I have bad breath? what is it?)
Him: twice a day?
Me: yes. (seriously, where is this going).
Him: do you floss?
Me: yes, every day. (now really trying to figure this out.)
Him: do you go to the dentist?
Me: yes
Him: twice a year?
Me: yes!!
Him: well, it's important we take care of our teeth too. just making sure you are taking care of them. they sure are pretty.
SERIOUSLY?!? I've never been interrogated about my teeth from a doctor. it was amusing.

So besides that, not a lot has been happening. Just trying to stay out of trouble. Promise I won't go that long again without blogging! I know I need to keep you guys entertained.
