Everyone Loves Ice cream



Thanks to all who have covered my short breaks, which now allow me to possibly make some extra cash. I came home from working only to find my son's bottle not even half drunk sitting out on the table. I thought, "Darn, that could have gone to Ben and Jerry's. I wonder how much they would pay." For those of you out of the loop, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is asking the icecream maker to begin using breast milk in its products instead of cow's milk.

Dr Pearce and Brian - thank you for your demonstration on the woes of breast feeding. Mothers everywhere should appreciate your sympathy. 

Our Brian

If you ever need to get a favor from Brian, just show your newly pedicured toes to him; even better, let him TOUCH your toes...& watch him go from a shade of pink to HOT RED in 10 seconds or less. Everyone loves Brian.

The giggles!

Blake, Dixie, and I were cleaning up a patient, and the smell of digested promote filled the room. Blake, with the sensitive gag reflex, audibly dry heaves. With tears in his eyes, he starts holding his breath and the rest of us got the giggles. We felt SO bad, but the giggles couldn't stop!

A funny story about Blake...

On Blake's last day at work, he had some GI issues. He was stocking a patient's room and ripped one (Dr. P's words). The patient opens her eyes and says "Was that me, I STINK?" Blake nodded his head and said "Yup, that was you" and left the room laughing. He goes back in the room 15 minutes later and the patient says "Am I going to smell like that all the time?" Blake "I don't know, maybe." I go in 30 minutes later and asked her how she was doing and she said she was fine but that she was really stinky this morning. The rest of the day the Pt was concerned because of her smell in the morning and told the doctors and her family all about it.
Moral Story: A skunk smells his own fur first, but doesn't have to fess up for it.
