A Moth and an Ear

Just a cute story my mama witnessed while at the doctor with the OP:

An old man walks into the doctors office and says to the receptionist, "I need to see a doctor?"
The receptionist asks why. He calmly replies "because I have a moth in my ear." The receptionist says, "You will have to wait a little while. There are a couple of people in ahead of you." He kindly says, "Oh that is alright. He flew in last night and I don't think he's going anywhere. He seems quite comfortable."

Poor old man slept all night with a moth in his ear. Must not have dawned on him to go to the ER. Actually it probably did and he figured he and his ear were better off waiting. Might have come out without an ear!

This reminded me of a something that happened to my cousin when I was babysitting him. He was about 7 so I was 17. He came in the house in a panic yelling, "there is a bee in my ear!" I totally didn't believe him and sent him back outside. He came in twice more and again I told him that, "it wasn't possible and that he must have just felt a bee fly by." The last time he came in, I thought I would appease him and listen to his ear. To much my surprise he had been telling the truth and there WAS something buzzing in his ear. I felt horrible! I called my Aunt and his grandma. I ended up getting it out with a pair of tweezers while his little sister held the flashlight. He still remembers it to this day.

I told you I was tired

Yesterday the princesses and I went to have our hair cut. There is a gal up here in this little town that does an awesome job so we go see her every time we come up here. Anyhow the girls were done and I sent them to the park with a cousin so I could have some me time.

My stylist is washing my hair and I notice an awesome teapot on her counter. Here is the conversation that followed:

Me: I love your teapot.
Her: Thanks.
Me: Is it one that you put water in and it heats up? (I didn't even catch it)
Her: {giggles, smiles} Isn't that what all tea pots do?
Me: {now it registers} You know what I meant? (she probably didn't- then the words came) Is it one of those electrical tea pots?
Her: I know - yes it is?

She was probably thinking that she should have been dying my hair a different color! (I am a dark brunette.) Just kidding- Please take no offense blondies. We ALL have our moments no matter what color our hair is.

At least I gave her a good laugh. I only felt stupid for a couple seconds.

Anyway I told you I was tired. My mama let me sleep last night. She took the pup and I slept from 9:30 to 8:30. So nice!

**SHOUT OUT**

Waking Up In Vegas

That's right, I'm headed to Las Vegas with my hubby and I'm going to party like it's my birthday. Well actually, it is my birthday today, it's just a coincidence that this trip was planned to begin on my b-day, but I really don't mind. So, tomorrow I hope to be waking up sometime around noon. I think it is safe to say I will not be waking up like those guys in the movie The Hangover. There will be no tigers, chickens, or babies in the room. That movie was completely crude and raunchy to the umpteenth degree....and I thought it was HILARIOUS.

Amy and I are like night and day when it comes to our brand of humor. I have a feeling Amy would probably shake her head and roll her eyes at me for laughing at such a tasteless movie. However, I never give up on her, I think if she saw this movie she would (secretly) find a lot of this movie very funny. If anything it would invoke some memories our little girl's trip we had to Vegas with our college roommate for my birthday a few (it seems more than a few) years ago. Now, I just want to say our night out was not anything like what went down in that movie. However, we had that same party like rockstars attitude and had so much fun.

The details of that night are sketchy *ehem* because it's been so long now I can't remember every little thing. We went to many different clubs, hitched a free ride in a Hummer limosine, and a party bus that was hauling a bunch of dudes arounds for a bachelor party. Oh yeah, and there was something about me "having" to take a shot from this bartender because it was my birthday. This lovely birthday shot (that my supposed friends set up) had a banana and whip cream involved. Yes, that's right all we did was make banana split sundaes and drink shots, really quite innocent. Then, we walked out of one of the clubs wondering what we were going to do next and realized it was morning. The sun was out, the sky was turning blue, we were hungry. So what do three ladies eat at whatever a.m. in Vegas after a night of fun shenanigans? I believe it was Del Taco. Oh, those where the days!!

Well, like I said I don't think my trip to Vegas will be quite as colorful as the last trip with my girls. However, it's a vacation and I'm always up for a vacation these days. I love the kiddos, but mama needs a break. Hopefully, Amy and I can get our crazy schedules together and set up another girl's trip. I don't think it will measure up to the first one but it is something to aspire to.
