It’s Tuesday I’m Random
If it’s Tuesday, this must be Random Tuesday Thoughts. It’s brought to you by Keelyat The Un-Mom. She really knows how to rock Tuesdays so go and check her out and tell her the Blue Monkey Butt sisters sent you or sister since Stacy is MIA today. Something about needing to get some work done. Puh-lease!
Yesterday I called the hospital to see if I needed an appointment before the surgery. First they didn’t even have my first name right. Great! Gives me loads of confidence right off the bat. Then they asked me a few questions to see if I had to come in for pre-surgical screening.
Do you have Diabetes?
No
High blood pressure?
No
Heart Problems?
No
Have you used cocaine in the past 30 days?
Ummmmm…let me think. Today’s the 9th….ummmmm. Honestly never, but I so wanted to mess with her. With my luck she wouldn’t get my sense of humor and she’d believe me and then put it down on my medical record and it would follow me forever. So I just said No! Do they really get people to say yes?
On the upside, since I answered all the questions correctly I don’t need to go in for a pre-surgical screening.
I saw my first official mask wearer at the store yesterday. I really wanted to ask the mask wearer if she was sick or was she afraid she would get sick. If you see me wearing a mask it’s because I’ve just scrubbed in to do some emergency surgery or Michael Jackson has taken control of my body from beyond the grave. In that case call an exorcist before I go out and get a chimp and name it Bubbles.
I love Peppermint Stick ice cream and for some obscure reason that I don’t understand it’s only available from mid-October through the holidays. It’s the only time I ever buy myself ice cream from the supermarket. Last week Edy’s was on sale buy 1 get 1 free. So my husband bought me 3 containers of the not quite half-gallon anymore. He said that should get you through until they stop selling it. Ya, if I had a bowl a week maybe! I said more like 3 weeks and that could quite possibly be a stretch.
That’s all the random I’ve got today. Stop by tomorrow for What The Hell Wednesday. I know Stacy will have some good WTHW thoughts.
Stumble it!

Gotta love the questions….
Have a wonderful RTT!

Good luck with your surgery!
LMAO @ Michael Jackson possessing you from the grave. Don’t forget to rename one of your kids Blanket.
I love that ice cream too. It’s so nummy.

If you get a chimp named Bubbles, can I come play with him? I have never had peppermint stick ice cream. Is it similar to mint chocolate chip?

WTH is up with those not quite half-gallons? I feel so cheated every time I have to buy one, on top of the fact that they’re charging like 7 bucks a container now. Jerks.
Good luck with the surgery. Back away from the chimp. I hear they eat faces.
Nice work carrying RTT on your lonesome. Hope your partner in crime is back soon.

Good luck on your surgery! I’ll be thinking about you… I always joke when I’m having to answer those kinds of questions, too…sometimes it falls flat, other times I luck out and actually get someone with a personality and a sense of humor.
Everything seems to be getting smaller while the prices stay the same or go higher. Hubby loves to eat ice cream every. single. night. But I only do grocery shopping twice a month - so he either has to ’suffer’ after he’s polished his off in 2-3 days, or buy himself more.
I love the specialty ice cream they have this time of year…too bad they don’t sell it when I’d eat more of it - during the hot months. Of course, it’s probably good for my ass that they don’t. 
Happy RTT!

Wait, they had a BOGO and your husband got 3? The thrifty person inside me feels this is WRONG! The 4th would have been free!

Peppermint stick ice cream sounds heavenly right about now! Yummmo! Happy RTT!

Love that ice cream too. Hate when they are done selling it.
