If Michele won’t post….

 

Michele very trustingly gave me access to post.  Given that we’ve all established our moisturising routines here’s something new.  A Natty update.

I started my summer “job” last week.  I’m spending four weeks hanging out with the Out Patient Neuro Rehab team at St Jude’s Hospital.  Surprisingly I am actually enjoing it!  The case load is pretty much 50/50 adults children so I have some comfort zone left and it’s not all strokes like I had imagined.  I even have Autistic preschoolers so I am well in my element with them.  What have I learnt in 3 days?  Well, all the “stuff” I memorised in college “just to pass the exams” actually stuck somewhere and I am slowly able to retrieve it.  Nice!  Anyway, the people are nice and they’ve already asked me to stay on part time after my 4 weeks.  I won’t be doing that (3 days after summer school has finished and I already miss my boys). 

There is a Vegas trip happening at the end of next week.  Mike, I’ll be in town Friday night through Sunday night if you want to come hang with me and the Rowland Unified crew.

That’s all.  Michele, got any news to share?

    Michele is too trusting…. You could have written anything!!!

    Apparently out of all the things you learned, “i before e except after c” was NOT one of them.

    And, the cookie monster now eats carrots.

    Oh but to have the power to edit…

    Why are you working on Saturday?

  6.  

    oh, I get it, you’re sitting. It’ s not sitting. New question - why are you hungover on Thursday?

    hmmmmm…typing not so good today

    So I discoverd something. If I don’t write the blog, I don’t get updates when someone posts comments! Well that’s just wrong! Doesn’t my blog know I have to know EVERYTHING?!

  9.  

    Perhaps then you’ll check your own blog?

    Natalie, of course I’d love to hang out with you when you are here. Give me a ring when you get into town?

    Umm… i was hungover on a wednesday hun. I think… i don’t know, i was really drunk the night before, so it is entirely possible I missed a day somewhere in there.

    And drunk basically because i had two rock-hard exams on Mon/Tues, with the Tues one finishing at mid-day, so I was in the pub with a beer by 1.30pm. Didn’t really stop drinking until about 11pm, meant mucho alcohol was drank and not much in the way of food.

    Went for a swim at lunchtime though and it cleared my head up, though not enough that i’m going to consider drinking on a school night again for a while! hehe

    Don’t ya love how we are grown ups and well out of school (well, except mark!) and yet we still call it a school night? LOL

  13.  

    ‘We’ are grown ups? Speak for yourself married lady!

  14.  

    She’s not a grown up. She’s 3 and a half.

    Well, I have the hair of a six year old. Someone commented on it today!

  16.  

    ok, what exactly is the hair of a six year old?!

  17.  

    Well apparently it amuses people that I have blonde hair, in a ponytail, that is wound into a little curl and looks like Cindy Brady’s hair. Plus the hair ribbon probably doesn’t make me look more mature …

  18.  

    I’m also guessing some of the things you say add to the perception of your age.

  19.  

    Meanie head.

  20.  

    Case in point. Three patients down, three little ones to go.

  21.  

    ugh… i’m getting ill. :-(

  22.  

    Feeling any better after the weekend Mark?

  23.  

    well aren’t we a boring bunch! what’s news with everyone???? i need gossip, I feel starved of it!

  24.  

    hey natty, actually if anything i think i’ve gotten progressively worse as the weekend has gone on! On a traiining course for 4 days this week though, so it should be pretty easy going for a while… It’s really annoying asI finally can relax and unwind now that exams are over, but of course now i just go and get Ill! Good weekend for all?

  25.  

    Weekend was lovely and relaxing thankyou! It is now Monday mornign though - the Vegas countdown is officially on. 5 days!

  26.  

    Oh weird. I thought you were here this weekend and didn’t call.

    Hi people from Australia - What does it mean to call someone a commodore? As in, “you’re such a fucking commodore?”

  28.  

    I don’t actually know what that means but here’s some background - A Commodore is a GM (Holden for the Aussies) car. Holden and Ford are the top two Bathurst V8 cars (http://www.v8supercar.com.au/content/bathurst1000/) and as such there is a HUGE rivalry between Holden “fans” and Ford “fans”. Holden fans are notoriously slow and on a lower socioeconomic class rank than the typical Ford fan. The term you mentioned would be a derogatory term. Possibly denotes stupidity…

    Again though, I have never heard that said before!
