Weekend Ramblings

I finally got Mr. Fit back!!!! 3 weeks and $1300 later he is looking fit and fabulous. I've learned that car accidents suck and hope to never get into another one! I applied for a new job this week really hope to hear back from it...It's at Melrose Wakefield Hospital in labor and delivery!!! But I'm not getting my hopes up that I'll even hear back from them. The birds seem to all be getting along well we are going on a week of having Drizzle. Yesterday I took Nikko to the nice dog park and Newton and meet Carole and Dorian who brought Piper. Nikko tried to play with Piper (who is a miniature dachshund) I was so scared the whole time he was going to trample her! I'm so bummed the weekend is almost over and I haven't done hardly anything fun except make banana bread today. O well that's what happens when you have to dump a lot of money into fixing your car!!!

When Old People Dye Their Hair

Today, I'm on my way to see a "problem" patient who I had been attempting to visit since the middle of last week and I was contemplating how I just never know what I'm going to find when I walk into someones home. I was interested to meet my patient's wife who had a very distinct, some might say man-ish voice and envisioned my patient to have that sweet old man look about him. I parked and took the elevator up as I stepped out a 4'11" elderly gentleman greeted me with jet black curly hair. Needless to say I spent a lot of time staring at his hair but really got me was he also chose to dye his eyebrows jet black too. It all came together when later in the visit he told me he used to be a hairdresser. Here's my thought for the day, if you are over 65 years old you really should think twice about dying your hair and eyebrows jet black, it's so obviously not natural.

Disappointingly the wife with the man voice was not home.

3 is Company

So here I am sitting in the living room watching Jersey Shore, wondering why I can't get paid to party (I'm fun too!) and keeping in an eye on the new bird....
This is what I learned today, both Peter and I are complete suckers for animals. We should not be going to PetSmart together. It was just suppose to be a quick trip to get Nikko nails done and the birds wings clipped. Then it turned into a game of "if we were to get another bird which one would we choose." Now here I sit with a new bird named Drizzle.
Had a good weekend...here are the highligths:
Trip to the zoo
drinks with carole and dorain
started some spices
got a new roomate
and of course drizzle!
Back to work tomorrow...
