Untitled :)

Here are a few random things from my day/week in no particular order:

  1. It’s a small world. Yesterday, an old friend from college e-mailed me…it’s been at least 3 years since we’ve had any communication and longer since I’ve seen her. Today, I went to the wrong polling place (used to be right!) and ran in to an old friend from Conner Prairie whom I haven’t seen in probably 5 yrs. He lives in the south part of our subdivision and is actively involved in the Republican Party! Both were wonderful, completely unexpected surprises!

  2. A patient stated that the escalated violence at Lafayette Square is President Bushs’ fault (if I understood correctly)…I wasn’t sure how much to say. He continued to criticize the Republicans and said that he’s glad people are realizing that George Bush is the worst president this country has ever had. I kept my mouth shut, politics are a bit off limits at the office. :)

  3. I love Costco! My family laughs because I’m always saying things about it. We just joined a few weeks ago and the newness hasn’t worn off yet. :) They not only give the best samples at any time of the day, but they have great deals! I am able to get organic food and great produce. Andrew isn’t sure if it’s saving us money yet. :)

  4. I voted (Josh you should be proud…I haven’t voted in a primary for…I’m embarassed to say, I don’t remember). Basically, I knew 2 people to vote for and winged the rest. If you were outside the poll handing out literature and were a republican, you got my vote.

I’m having one of those weeks where I just feel old. Perhaps it’s my birthday around the corner and the realization that 30 is coming faster than I want (no, not this year) or maybe it’s running into people from a different part of my life. Whatever it is, it’s making my week strange! That’s it for now! I’ll try not to make it so long between posts!

It is me. How are you? Are you still in KC? How's your family?

Alaina,

I'm very happy you voted! It's a great day for the democratic process when it pulls in lost voting souls.

Btw, Pres. Bush is also at fault for the fall of the Roman Empire, the Chicago Cubs for being as bad as they are and death. I thought everyone knew that!
