Tmi about UTI

I have a UTI. Just done with the doctor and FINALLY got my prescription. (Cipro!) I was up all last night with hot and cold flashes. The last time I had a UTI I thought I had a brain tumor cause I couldn't think straight. Again, today, I have said a lot of dumb things.

Doctor : "if you take AZO to help with bladder spasms, it will turn your urine orange and stain surfaces orange"

My reply: "okay: I won't pee all over my house like I normally do, then."

Pharmacist: "have a happy valentine's day!"

My reply: "too bad I have a urinary tract infection and I can't celebrate tonight. We'll make up for it this weekend, though!"

I had better keep my mouth shut as much as possible until the drugs kick in. It's like I have ZERO filter on my mouth. I remember one time when my Grandma E was really sick with a bladder infection she was very loopy and out of it. Is your bladder and urinary tract connected to your pie hole ?

Christmas tree

It's almost Valentines Day and our Christmas tree is still up. At least it's a fake tree, so it's not sitting and rotting or anything.

However, our laziness about this tree is ridiculous.

Leapfrog

I am watching leapfrog tonight with my Tornado. The frogs don't know what letter is which. To solve the issue, they are going to the Amazing Alphabet Amusement Park. "ABC FOLLOW ME!" Now they are singing "c'mon the learning path today!"

I think I'll try singing this song at work to prospects.

Redonkulous mud

This morning our son, Tornado, decided to play on the swings in our backyard without telling mom and dad.

It was raining this morning. And our backyard is full of clay soil that really sticks to you when wet.

Luckily, I had at least put boots on my son or his tennis shoes would have been ruined. He caked 2 inches of mud on his boots.

I loved mud and being in the rain as a kid. My husband had to be forced outside with a crowbar. As he and I texted back and forth this morning about Tornados redonkulous (hubby's word, not mine) issue this morning, I could feel apprehension dripping from his text message as I suggested playing in the mud may be a good idea (in the right timing)

"Yea, I suppose."

Skydiving

At work today, a prospective student gave an advisor a chat explaining they googled skydiving school and came up with my University. I am not sure if it's a prank to randomly chat with colleges the most ridiculous degrees imaginable, but this one took the cake. Now, my University is a small, liberal arts school. How they came to ask about skydiving is beyond me. 

A coworker, who I will name A., played an awesome prank on the rest of us based on his chat with this skydiving student. He let us know about the student's request, and sent us all a screenshot of the new coursework for skydiving with a list on our website advising it was now available in our Wisconsin campus. Of course, Wisconsin would get the cool courses first! 

A little bit later, A. set up a fake chat with one of our newest advisors, who I will call C. Our jokester, A., had a fake chat conversation with C. asking about the skydiving. C., being wonderfully gullible, googled on our website the skydiving coursework just to be sure that it wasn't really there! We've had a stressful last few weeks, so we've all been laughing (to the point of tears) over this all day. Re-reading it, and to you, dear reader, it may not seem so funny. 

So, if you would like a bit of fun, ask your friendly neighborhood advisor about wallpapering school, or how many credits you get for collecting belly button lint. Who knows what insanity may ensue!
