1. I have been thinking for some time about how old I'm getting. I had two more manifestations of old lady behavior this weekend - I sat and talked at the ward activity instead of running around. Husband pointed out that when he was little, that was a sure sign of oldness. I also just wanted some PEACE AND QUIET Sunday afternoon. Husband was playing his shoot 'em up video game, the kids next door were screaming and running around outside, there were cars driving past with their rap music blaring...QUIET, QUIET, QUIET! There is no quiet to be had when you live in town.
2. I am to be released from my Sunday School teaching assignment next Sunday. YAY YAY YAY. I have been assigned to the enrichment committee in the Relief Society as the "cultural director". I really have no idea what that means, but I'm pretty sure it's up there with "Relief Society greeter"...a calling that I've totally already had.
3. Cold and flu season is here. People come to the office and cough on me. I think I'm going to have to start wearing a little Japanese doctor's mask.
4. One of the blood work machines here at the office has been down for the past three days. Despite the increase in paperwork for me, it's really not all bad - no one waits for results which means we get off EARLIER. Once they get it fixed, I might come in during the middle of the night and break it on purpose.
5. School continues to go well. Husband helped me memorize all of the body systems and their functions this past weekend. I'm going to have to say that I'm pretty much a genius. Last night we started in on the parts of the skull, which are divided into about seventeen parts, only two of which are important to me - the front part and the back part. The good news is that next class, we get to color with colored pencils. AND, we finally moved from the legs to the back. Of course, I didn't get to practice because my partner said that it was "too cold in the room to just be sitting around with nothing but a sheet on".
6. We went to see the new James Bond movie this weekend. I'm going to have to say that I was disappointed in the story. I was also disappointed that many of the men in the movie were wearing white pants. If you are going to kill someone, white is probably not the right color to be wearing - blood doesn't come out of white. Come on, James! Let's think of these things!
7. Gas is $1.80! ONE EIGHTY.
8. The battle of the office thermostat is now going strong. The Doctor thinks the heat should be on because the outside temperature has dropped below 75. Apparently there is no such thing as a happy medium.
9. I've decided that my next career is going to be as a professional lawn mower operator. I watched the man mowing the lawn outside during lunch and he looked like he was having a really good time.
10. Attention Patients: I do not need to know the history of your bowel movements. Really. I don't. I'm more than happy to transfer you to The Doctor's phone so you can tell him. That's why doctors make more money than me - because they care about that kind of stuff.

Hey! I am an "Enrichment Specialist" which pretty much means I come to the activity bring the crap assigned to me... and I virtually did no planning.
The worst part- going to the activity.
I think we have the same calling (it is glorious... aside from the activity you do NOTHING. Perfect for lazy people like me!)
