Ten on Tuesday

I took this idea from Cameo (thanks Cameo!), but I like lists better than paragraphs (who doesn't?), so this works for me.

Ten things to point out on Tuesday:

1. Scrubs are the epitome of awesome. I always knew doctors were smarter than the rest of us, and by deeming a pair of pajamas as the official 'uniform' for medical providers throughout the world, that just solidified that we, as non-doctors, can never be as smart as them.
2. I like doing mind-numbing busy work. I took a pile of 300 inactive patient files and erased the name off each one, just so we could reuse the folders. It took me 45 minutes. It was the time of my life. Hey. Any time I get to sit and think about what kind of shampoo I'm going to buy next, is time well spent.
   
3. Bloozer (Josh's big blue surfboard) is still 9 feet long and is still sitting in our living room, much to my dismay. Josh had promised that it would be a 'temporary arrangement.' I've yet to see the temporary part.
4. I was explaining to this girl at work about how I'm really pathetic and have no friends, and she invited me to hang out. I told her I was busy doing something that week with friends but maybe another time. I still can't figure out why I don't have friends here...
   
5. I can cook okay, but am completely unable to imitate the way my mom makes cream of wheat (a.k.a. 'cookie soup'). I tried making it again today (I've made an attempt a total of 6 times, never once having it taste like my mom's...), but failed yet again. I ended up trying 2 batches, both of them tasting like dust.
   
6. My visiting teaching companion called me today, and said she wanted to meet me and just hang out. I was completely shocked, but even more so when she gave me her address and it was to an apartment complex! Never mind that renting an apartment in that complex costs well over 2 grand a month, she doesn't live in a multi-million dollar home! Hooray for something closer to normalcy!
7. I realized that yes, I still love The View (I had figured I had hated it after Rosie O'Donnel was on it, but I realized that after watching it this morning, I just hate Rosie; the other ladies will always stay near and dear to my heart). We all have our guilty pleasures, and when I work half-days on Tuesdays, I get to watch The View. I hate to admit that I really like that show, but I do. Long live Elizabeth, Joy, Barbara, Whoopi, and Sherri.
8. Women forget that they're 70 years old and should forfeit wearing shorts shorter than their bum cheeks, regardless of how much plastic surgery they have had. Unfortunately, these old birds won't accept defeat and recognize that their legs, once smooth and tight, are now lumpy and leathery. Same goes with bikinis. I've seen way too many (just one is too many) ladies well past their prime bikini days, strutting their varicose veins marked with age spots around the beach. Wear a modest one-piece and stay out of your granddaughters' closets!
9. Spiders have no fear here. Every night I park my car near some bushes and every night spiders take that as an invitation to make webby homes on the exterior. Just like the day before, I drive my car fast on the roads and just like the day before, the spiders cling to some part of the car, watching their night's work get ripped from my car's shell by the gusting wind. I look in their small eyes, and tell them to get a life. They look back in mine, and tell me that they are. Mine.
10. I am 'one of those people,' as Josh likes to put it. I am a person, dictated by my tv shows. To my credit, I only have one show and that is The Bachelorette. Well, Josh forced me into going to a ward FHE thing (not my kind of thing. Any gathering of ward members outside of church tends to not be my kind of thing... I'm obviously way too cool for that.), and I made him and the other family we went with leave early so that I could catch my show. Never mind that I sacrificed the first 1/2 hour, Josh still complained about having to go home to watch a 'stupid tv show that I should probably not be watching anyway.'

p.s. I realize that my blog template is by far the world's ugliest blog template, but that just makes me like it more for it's unique ugliness. I'm really artsy.
