Thursday Ramblings

  I never got around to telling you about my 

trip to Dallas did I?

It was a disaster.

I could not get excited about it.

My mom even commented on it.

But my mom comments on lots of things and

I just let those go in one ear and out the other.

Speaking of ears,

One of mine hurt for about 10 seconds on the way to Dallas.

I thought it was odd but

then I realized I did not put on deodorant 

that morning and did not pack any for the trip.

It is flippin' 112 degrees and I did not remember

deodorant????

Please!  That should have been a sign.

So M2 graciously whipped into a Wal Mart

and I got deodorized.

And then we were off on the road again.

I had all the numbers to the peeps in the 

Dallas area that I wanted to meet up with.

And I was sssoooo excited.
I missed seeing the camels
outside of Wichita Falls.

Got to the hotel....got to sleep.

Woke up feeling bad.

And then there was a big thick gray sock and someone's

phone charger in my room.

Only ONE sock.

And it was not mine.

We stopped at CVS so I could

dope myself up

and to school we went.

Got out of school

and went to Wal Mart to 

dope me up some more.

Went to my room and the gray sock was gone.

But the phone charger was not.

I get to wondering how in the world did they know

THAT WAS NOT MY SOCK???

For reals?  

Realized I could not swallow.  

Crying made it worse.

Spent the night up and down feeling like I was 

dying.
Advil and hot baths are my friends.

Got up the next morning 

and went to school.

Left school to go to the CVS Minute Clinic in

Richardson Texas.

OMG...that physician's assistant

is actually an angel in a Dr. coat.

For reals.  And I tried to tell her so.

But at that point I could not speak

AT ALL.

I think they kinda liked that at school.
I still wonder why they took the sock.

I could barely open my mouth.

She told me I had a bad sinus infection,

an ear infection

and strep throat.

She did not touch me after she realized I had strep throat.

Gave me meds and I went back to school.

Then I realized that *mother nature*

had come a calling for the second time in August.
Cause obviously I am such a LUCKY girl.

I sat there trying not to cry and asked God when he was going to send the locusts

to round out the plagues.

I realized that not packing deodorant 

was the least of my worries.
A grasshopper did ride in the elevator
with me.
Up to the second floor.
I did mention that I was on lots of drugs right?

I wrote a lot of notes.

Cause I could not talk.

I don't think M2 appreciated that while

she was trying to drive.
We drove by In and Out Burger.
I got to see it but that was all.

I did not get to see anyone that I wanted to see.

But I saved a lot of money since I did not eat anything.

But I used that money for meds.

And I still did not get to go to Ikea.

I really wish I had taken a picture of

the big metal chicken right outside of 

Decatur 

especially after reading about Beyonce the Chicken

who is really a Rooster.

WHAT??  You don't know what I am talking about?

Go read it now.

Right here.

You are welcome.

I am so getting a giant metal chicken.

I am so glad that August is over.

The End.
