Today, I went to Dairy Queen and got an ice cream cone... |
|
And when I went back into my car, the radio was playing "Lick It Up" by KISS.
Irony.

And a funny memory to me. The DQ was the first and only job I was ever fired from. Fifteen years old at the time and I could not make the squiggly on the top of the ice cream cone. Now mind you, since then, some forty five years later, I graduated college as a nurse, helped to save a number of lives, retired honorably from the profession, went on to write and publish three medical books still in circulation, raised a family, and became fairly successful financially. But to this day, I'm certain that given the opportunity, I still would not be able to make a squiggly on the top of a Dairy Queen ice cream cone. So, all in all, I have failed in life. :)

5. I consider you successful |

But then again, if you ever figured out how to make squigglies on the top of your patients that would have been really awesome. Out of curiosity, did you ever treat Bob's Big Boy?

question. In fact his name WAS Bob and Big Boy is just the half of it! One afternoon I was working on the orthopedic unit when I got a call from another nurse on the med surg floor... Wait a minute. How old are you?

My nurse friend called me from another floor because she had a patient who had passed on earlier in the shift. I know, this is going to sound very unprofessional, but I don't know how else to tell the story other than how it happened. She told me that in all her years of nursing, she had never seen a patient as richly "endowed" and of course being curious, I went to her floor to see this medical miracle. By the time I arrived, the news of his passing had obviously reached his friends because the room was filled with no less than thirty women who all stood around the bed mourning the loss. But yes, Bob was appropriately covered up for the viewing.

I was talking to a friend a couple of weeks ago about all the concerns I have in my life (and they are biggies) - after we finished talking, I turned the radio on and "I Will Survive" was playing. :rofl:
My friend turned to me and said "there's your sign! It'll all work out!"
