Har Vegas Princess! Yes, what we parents won't do to shield our kids from the truth...

Ah, the joys of explaining illegal substances to your toddler. And they say society is going down the shi.....uh down the place the guy who is sweating because he is so hot desperately wants to visit.

2009-07-09T21:19:45.164-05:00

Jill: Thanks... yeah, eye's cleared up now.

Bruce: I felt bad laughing, until her Mom laughed along with me. Then the little girl didn't quite know WHY were laughing, so she started giggling along with us both! It made me guffaw even harder!

Louise: Thanks! You never know when humour will strike, do you?

Hilarious story!

Hilarious story!

That was priceless.......truely priceless.....(hope the pink eye is all cleared up)

Glad the eye is clearing up. Funny on the girl...

2009-07-08T06:33:58.233-05:00

Glad the eye is clearing up. Funny on the girl's reading choice!

Momo: Yikes... yes, I hate those sweats too. Jane...

2009-07-07T21:20:05.000-05:00

Momo: Yikes... yes, I hate those sweats too.

Janet: Of course, as soon as his was unfolding, all I could think of - how the heck am I going to get a copy of that Drug mag? I went up to the bookshelf, and low and behold there were DOZENS sitting there, with "Yours Free to Take Home" written on the cover. Okay! I can do that! (But it did take the thrill out of stealing one).

Lady Banana: She is feeling better, thank goodness... now it seems it may be MY turn. Gak.

Jo-Jo: Yeah, Highlights! I can't believe how long those things have been around... I mean *I* remember reading them!!!

VE: On you, yes, it could be as difficult to view...

I had a pink shirt once in the 80s...that's almost as bad a pink eye...

2009-07-07T15:27:39.023-05:00

LOL!!!! What happened to the good ol' days when children's waiting room reading material was restricted to Highlights Magazine????

2009-07-07T12:17:15.108-05:00

Haha.. I've had to do a similar thing years ago.. it really stretched the imagination!

Hope your daughter is better now!

haha Love it!

2009-07-07T09:49:01.601-05:00

haha Love it!

2009-07-07T07:38:19.188-05:00

I have sweat like that before. I only wish it had been because I was hot.

Jay: Yeah, but I do think she was a tad TOO young....

2009-07-06T19:17:16.442-05:00

Jay: Yeah, but I do think she was a tad TOO young. Daughter is getting better... slowly at least.

The Green Stone Woman: Oh, it looks so painful. And never worry, she gets lots of hugs (at least when her friends aren't around). The little girl was such a cutie pie; and yes, it must have been the cartoon cover. Sadly no, neither me nor her mom helped her chose; we really didn't think she would have made the choices she did! (and yes, it was too funny!)

Oh JD, you druggie you! ;) It may have been even funnier her trying to explain... imagine all the new questions it would have generated!

Melinda: At least these magazines were't 10 years old...

Jeff: Aha! Yes, I do believe some questioning is in order....
Oh, and yeah, up here we just go in and walk out. No need for money except for the $ 3.65 for the eye drops (Blue Cross takes care of the rest).

Karen: Well, since my daughter is 18, I don't need to bring along anything anymore (although I could have used a good book for myself!) I'll bet that mother knows now to pack a bag!

Ashley: Yeah, "sea-chicken"... I do wonder what age group that mag really IS meant for...

Ha Ed! Yeah, every other waiting room has one of those bendy wire/beads thingys!!!

Tony: Oh, it's not made up at all. A woman at work had it so bad her eye looked as red as a cherry... gross. If left untreated, you can damage your eyesight.

Heather: Her eyes are slowly clearing up, thank goodness. The hardest part - she wears contacts, so she was doing a great impression of Mr. Magoo all weekend!

Swubird: I know... there was a Dollar Store right next door. How hard would have been to pick up a few right there?

Reforming Geek: Yeah, with her red eyes, I was making cannibis jokes all day; which made the discovery of the drug magazine quite timely, in fact.

Aw, Feefifoto, thank you! I am amazed I haven't tinkered with the design in at least a few weeks now... ;)

Hey, since I have you in my reader I rarely click over to the actual site. I love your design; it's full of little surprises in every niche.

2009-07-06T12:35:12.106-05:00

I think that mom did pretty well but for some reason a beer sounds good right about now! Yeah, I know I should eat lunch but what the hey!

My brother had a sinus infection so bad the gunk was coming out of his eyes. He had to go to the ER. They thought he was on drugs. Um, no.

Hope your daughter is better!

2009-07-06T09:16:49.178-05:00

Maureen:

I agree. Get some real children's books in there and stop with the dope and all that other stuff. What ever happened to Peter Cottontail and Mickey Mouse---even Little Red Riding Hood?

Happy trails.

2009-07-06T00:41:30.947-05:00

Yes, real children's books like the Moomintroll series by Tove Jansson. Yep, that's what I reckon!

By the way... I don't like the sound of this "pink eye". I thought it was just a made up thing until I read this post. I'm almost afraid to wiki it to learn more...

2009-07-05T22:40:59.195-05:00

Man, even a fish tank in the waiting area. Or one of those little bendy wire things with the beads on it.

2009-07-05T20:22:07.914-05:00

LOL! What are you, a sea-chicken? Excellent peer-pressuring line, I will file that one for future reference :o) Funny story!

2009-07-05T14:45:35.791-05:00

What a funny experience. We always bring along our own books when we go to the doctor's office. You might try that next time. It works well.

2009-07-05T14:35:40.672-05:00

Oh, check that last line. I just reread and realized this happened in Canada. Nevermind.

2009-07-05T14:34:33.709-05:00

Wow, that's too weird. Austin actually had pink eye a couple of weeks ago - seriously. It's the first time anyone in our family has had it since they were toddlers. Do we need to ask our kids about this?

btw... how the heck did you pay for your visit? It ain't free in this country!

Bahaha! I love books at the docs office, educational and hilarious!
