I have a confession.
I told my Dermatologist and the Physician’s Assistant in the room, the story of how G-man and I met. They were impressed.
The appointment was essentially over, the Dr. was telling me all the meds I needed to take and how to take them; when I looked at her with a blank look and said, ‘if you heard the conversation that I had with him (pointing at the PA) you would know that I can’t comprehend a word you’re saying. You need to treat me like a child and write every single instruction down on paper.’
The conversation went something like this:
Him: How’s things going today?
Me: I’m. it’s. well. doing. you? <I kid you not.>
Him: stares at me in disbelief.
Me: stares at him in fear.
Both: burst out laughing.
After explaining to her that I had a redeye flight from HI, landing at 5am in LAX, then driving 3 hours home on zero sleep, she understood. And then started the questions…’why were you in HI?’
So I told the story of us. Also telling the story of Corrections and how I left that, and what I do now and how it’s drastically difference. Night and day. Boy job, girl job.
I had them staring at me, enthralled for a good 5 minutes. They didn’t budge, didn’t look at their watches, just stared at me while I told my stories.
Talk about a captive audience. Who knew I could tell such a great story on no sleep in over 24 hours?
She wrote out all my instructions (good dr.) and they left the room in wonder.
But I feel bad…because I told 2 complete strangers, whom I had just been introduced to 5 minutes earlier, the story of how G-man and I met, when I haven’t even told you.
Its not a conspiracy, I promise. It’s in the works, not 100% complete, but it’s coming and will be coming soon. I know some have asked. Just hold on a little longer for me, please. = )
On a completely related/unrelated note: I’ve noticed a .5% improvement on my skin since taking the meds for a week. This makes me very very happy!!
I hope you lovelies have a wonderful weekend. Happy Friday!!

That picture reminds me of that one scene in "Roman Holiday" w/Audrey Hepburn... Have you seen it? Glad the skin is slowly looking better, and can't wait to hear the how you two met story =)
You dirty dog. WE want to be your captive audience, dont'cha know??? ;)
Good to hear about the skin!
Also, I love your peacoat. The one your wearing while sticking your hand in that tortilla with a face and one droopy eye. I love it, I love it, I love it. The peacoat. Not the tortilla on the wall.
What IS it with you and tortillas, anyway?

Okay, now I'm just ticked. I WANT THE STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So do LeAnna and I get to hear the story on our next Skype date? 'Cause other wise you would be the dirty dog LeAnna called you out to be.
