Much Too Long!
Well, it has been an age since I have posted to my blog! That's not good. I guess I wasn't doing this all 21 days - I read that it takes 21 days to form a habit. So why is it that takes minutes to break a good one?
I was watching a show called Bones and I had to laugh in shock and disbelief at something the lead character has said in last week's show - the one that aired on 11/01/2005 entitled "The Man in the Bear". At the end of the show, after they'd caught the killer who, it turned out, was a cannibal, she said, "But is he nuts because he got a brain disease from eating human flesh, or was he nuts the first time he ate flesh, or did he just lick his fingers after surgery?"
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Who comes up with this? Not that it wasn't an amazingly effective line... it certainly got my attention. As someone whose hobby frequently allows me to be up to my elbows in blood, the idea of ingesting it is... well... truly horrifying. I mean, we avoid the most basic contact with the patient's blood - on our skin. Imagine if it gets into an orifice - any one! Ick. But it is an attention getter. I just had to laugh at that, as disgusting as it was!
A friend of mine went on a date with a woman he met online. Apparently she drilled him mercilessly about his medical history - asking if he had to use Viagra. Being in one's 50s does NOT mean one needs to use medication to get/maintain an erection! So he rejoined with a comment about her being close to menopause, and does she find that at night she "dries up"? I howled - absolutely was hysterical with laughter at that! Not that I should be surprised coming from the source! I have been known to say some outrageous things... but nothing quite like that, quite so scathing - and not on a date! Not that she wasn't deserving...
So I shall write more soon but for now, this is juicy enough!
