Ahhh! How does Friday sneak up on me so quickly?! I still have to run to the pharmacy to pick up my birth control that I was supposed to take this morning. Oh well, it's not like I even have the potential of having a baby scare (and that's the way I like it, ps.).
My tree is about a third done and on the wall! Accomplishment! I should paint a little bit more today. I haven't even started on the stencils. I'm not really sure what I've been doing this week. I worked every day except yesterday but I didn't even start painting yesterday until 11pm. Oh wait, I did have a fantastic lunch with some friends. Like, we could barely eat or talk because we were laughing so much. At stupid stuff. Facial expressions. Accidental spitting. You know... We were those giddy 16 year olds who just got their licenses and are finally free from their parents' supervision. That was us. And I got a monte cristo sandwich! I didn't even know something so good existed! French toast sandwich?! Cheesy french toast sandwich with ham and turkey... and maple syrup to dip it in?! Sold. I made a poor choice and got french fries with it. Wow, those two things do not complement each other whatsoever. But the sandwich was incredible.
And then I had cake last night. I mixed peanut butter and chocolate and poured it over the vanilla cake and put cut-up bananas on top. And then I had another piece today... with blueberry syrup, whipped cream, and pecans. Diet starts tomorrow! Kidding. The diet starts never. But I got a text from my friend telling me that she's coming home next week and ready to start early morning runs along the riverfront.. Oh, that's nice. How does that apply to me? But she roped me in, which I'm excited about and terribly afraid of at the same time.
Anyways, since it's Friday I just want to tell you that my favourite thing this week people who know how to do their job correctly. I went to the doctor because my scalp was so dry that I had a perma-winter wonderland look going on. Not cute. I told her, she took two seconds to look at my scalp, wrote down a prescription and BAM... scalp is lookin' mighty fine. I realize that it was probably pretty simple for her or anyone else in the medical field to subscribe the correct kind of scalp medication. But I couldn't have done it! I don't have that information in my brain. So, for the fact that we need people to go through 8 years of school to be able to remember every kind of scalp lotion, I'm very glad. What if she would have cheated her way through med school?! What if she told me that she would have to mull it over for a week before she could suggest a proper lotion? That would be crazy! So, let's appreciate those people in our lives that we only ever interact with when we need something. Easier said than done, because I still hate waiting 45 minutes in the doctor's office. This applies to more than just doctors.. this actually literally applies to everyone who has a role to play in our day. Bus drivers, professors, janitors, postal workers, and goodness me every other person under the sun. Someone made your shirt and they did it right. Could you have made your shirt? Something to think about! And of course, don't discredit what you, yourself bring to the world's table. I'm sure it's delicious.
