This weekend was actually boring. Normally I've got a huge list of things I need to do (that hardly ever get done), and the compelling need to do things, but this weekend I lost all will to do anything, so I did nothing... and you know... that can get contagious.
Oh sure, I did THINGS. I had a dermatologist appointment to inspect my skin. Being a redhead prior to the invention of SPF anything, chances of my fair, easily cooked skin to generate all sorts of nasty big "C" things is pretty astronomical, and since I had something pre-nasty frozen off my nose (oh how I wish I had one of those freezy container things... that fun I could have at work), the doctor felt it necessary to inspect every epi of my derm... is.
Never having gone through one of them, I could only imagine that you stood on a giant lazy susan and spun around while the doctor peered at your through a gigantic magnifying glass. Apparently not, although that would have been faster than the guy trying to peer meekly at skin around the crinkly paper gown from hell. Please someone explain to me why paper gowns are large enough to fit 4 of me, but the little plastic tie wrap thing barely goes all the way around to tie? Also, for those of you that go have the derm inspection: wear a bra... even if you are a guy. You can keep your bra and underwear on (they encourage it) therefore I've noodled it through and have come to the conclusion that bras and underwear keep you from developing skin cancer in those areas because if you can keep them on, then they aren't going to look under there, therefore there's no reason to look under there, therefore bra and underwear material must ward off the big "C". Where's my Nobel Peace Prize?
As I write this, Lobsterman is texting me pictures of his lobster and prime rib meal that he claims he was forced to eat because Dallas only has lobster and prime rib places... apparently no McDonalds or anything cheaper... how odd...
Which reminds me of the wonderful box I got via Fedex on Friday... Lobersterman's dirty clothes from his last trip. In case you are wondering, its cheaper to Fedex your clothes to your trip destination than pay the baggage fees the airlines charge you, plus Fedex usually doesn't steal your possessions and try on your underwear and take pictures of it and post it on facebook... not that this has happened... that I'm aware of, but...
Anyhoo, Saturday was spent making stew. Ok, I threw a bunch of stuff in a crock pot, plugge it in and turned it on (which can be challenging... completing all steps in the proper order) and then sat on my ass all day watching tv.
Sunday I washed all of Lobersterman's dirty clothes and threw them into another suitcase, which leads me to my next topic: Denny's: the Activia Alternative.
I'll save that for another blog post, as I'm sure that's another Nobel Peace Prize in the making and I don't want to seem selfish getting two awards in one day... and now Lobsterman is telling me that I need to just go eat at this place he's at and order a Venti Au Jus... lovely. I'd better go up and eat my peanut butter sandwich before that's spoiled by all of the Au Jus drool.I was going to write about how boring it is here without Lobsterman, but now all I want is a cup of Au Jus.
Really, you could have planned a trip to come visit me while Lobsterman is away. We could have done nothing together. I can do nothing with the best of them, you know.
