You think you’ve had a bad day?

August 4th, 2008

This past weekend, one of my friends had such a terrible flight experience you have just got to go read about over at her site. She has kept an amazing attitude the whole thing (publically at least ;)).

I will have to think twice about the next time I want to complain about one of my days.

Wait for it… wait for it… How many of you will wait for it? There is a pay off.

10 BEST CITIES IN THE USA?

June 4th, 2008

These cities were ranked the top 10 cities to live in the U.S. (says CityRating.com)… I put my thought next to each since I have spent time in each of them.

Houston, TX (no way, have you been there?) 

Austin, TX (agree. a great city)

San Diego, CA (agree. amazing)

New York, NY (agree. of course)

Denver, CO (agree. wow)

Charlotte, NC (nope. haha)

Los Angeles, CA (agree. if you can get past the “plastics”)

Seattle, WA (agree. yes please, but hold the rain)

Atlanta, GA (agree. traffic is nuts, but they now have H&M)

Chicago, IL (agree. maybe 1/2 of the year)

A trip to the dentist…

April 14th, 2008

My first trip to the dentist in THREE years!?!? Yup. Having insurance changes a lot huh.So, from the first moment I entered the office waiting room things were strange. I reckon there is NO other place on earth like a dentist office.



1.  The lady sitting directly across from me was filing her finger nails! If you don’t know me, THAT DRIVES ME NUTS! It’s the sound and whatnot. One middle school age kid was straight asleep as he waited, and his brother was sweating like he was going to jail. I told him that it would only hurt for a few minutes then they would give him a toy. 



2. The music. Really? Celine Dion, Elton John, Huey Lewis, OneRepublic?!?!?, and a few songs that I have never heard in my lifetime.

3. 45 minutes later than my appointment was scheduled I get brought back.

4. 25 minutes of picking, bleeding-rinsing (repeat), some digital picture of my chops, and a no cavity report…

After receiving a good “talking to” from the assistant about how I need to floss my teeth better in the back, she handed me a little cute packet w/ a toothbrush, floss, a card w/ my next appointment in OCT and I was outtie. I told my twitter followers that I don’t like the dentist. THAT HASN’T changed.
