Eggtastic!

It's quite a beautiful day here in rural PA. And luckily it's my day off. Since I've been neglecting my blogging duties, I thought it'd be a good time to ramble...So let's see if I can recall some funny tidbits about the past couple of weeks...

1) Elderly resident, who I consider to be like a grandpa, made me laugh like a maniac when I said that the guy I was interested in only wanted a casual relationship. He said: "Hell I'd ride a bicycle just to see you! What the hell is wrong with him?" Hehehe. Considering that he has to use a walker and had surgery in both knees, I thought it was the best compliment a gal could get:)

2) I'm spoiling myself silly for my birthday. This included a visit to a new age shop. I'm fascinated by the mystical realm. No, I'm not a superstitious freak, but I do believe that there's a connection to a higher source and things "don't just happen." I met a cool woman who's helping me get in touch with my inner-self and regain some balance. As I was leaving her place, her 3 year old son ran out from the living room and hugged my leg. I picked him up into my arms and gave him a hug. He had the sweetest smile and giggle. His mom said that he never runs to strangers like that. I was touched and said "At least this little guy likes me!" She said not to worry and that love will come to me one day. Still it was magical to get such affection from a child.

3) Another funny incident happened at work. As some of you know, I work with the elderly and I truly love helping this crowd. And though it's sad to see the effects of dementia, I've learned that one must use laughter to deal with the pain. One woman cracked us all up during dinner time. Every day she tells us the same thing--that she can't eat certain foods because of her diabetes. We know this and give her only what she can eat. But her memory fails and she'll raise her hand and complain about something or the other. This time she yelled "What kind of rug trap is this?!!" I've never heard such an expression. It made us laugh out loud. Of course we had to do this behind closed doors:)

3) I realized that I have no self-control. No further explanations! Angel Jr knows what I'm talking about. Hehe I'll keep you all guessing:)

4) My tax refund came...and went to bills!!! Grrrrr

5) Last Fri I hung out with the guys. It was one of my new friend's (from the nite I went out alone) birthday. They drink like fish! I had so many tequila shots that I would have done the tequila dance if I had the right shoes. I walked the birthday boy home. He was quite trashed. We walked to the living room and his buddy was sitting on the couch watching "Oprah." He was at the bar earlier in the evening. I laughed and said "Why the hell are you watching this?" And then proceeded to ask "Are you guys all meeting here to do weed?" He said "Yeah.." I think I should just go ahead and become a detective...hehehehe! Don't worry I didn't participate. That stuff just doesn't sit well in my system. My drugs are coffee and booze.

6) I should go to a church and light a candle. My dad actually remembered my birthday. It's on Monday, April 14th. But I'm partying with my pals on Saturday. So, I spoke to my mom earlier and she said that dad wants me to come home to celebrate the occasion. He never remembers our birthdays (even his own) or his anniversary. How bizarre! Angel says that he must miss me. I guess...I'll be hungover on Sunday. Perfect time to visit the fam?! Have a great weekend everyone!!!
