forgotten blogs.....

ok, so the follwoing pieces were written on my handheld over the past few weeks......and i apologize upfront for the unfinished thoughts.....

Chips.....ok,so......this morning as I walked into the thursday-only health department .....there was a big bag of tortilla chips on the table propped up by a large jar of salsa....extra chunky.....the chips were unopened.....and as I was raised to wait until such treats were offered....I waited patiently for at least 45 minutes ......before I asked who had brought them.....and the requisite reply was heard....'oh, I forgot to open those up'.......enough of an invite for me......a have a weak spot for salty/crunchy.......and sour/salty/crunchy ........omg........salt and vinegar potato chips must be on the menu in heaven for the concept of an afterlife to be worthwhile ........even regular ruffles with good onion dip......oohh......or maybe homemade clam dip.......or guacomole.......ummmmm .... someone should invent a calorie-free salty/crunchy snack......maybe puffed ranch-flavor acorns or pickled onion-style toasted peapods.......maybe bbq babypinecones........omg.....as long as it is crunchy /salty ...

Brick .....ok,so I am working a health fair in the bank next door to the health dept....the background music has been
A curious mix of madonna, dave matthews......and ben folds singing brick....this song always makes me want to cry....the coldness of the day recalled, the purpose of the drive into town, the secrecy .....the finality.....the feelings of relief rather than remorse......

Ok, so I am working with a client on thursdays that shares my birthday .....or rsther...I was born on her birthday .....and for some reason I have withheld this information .......curiously.....and the longer I wait to bring it up.....I don't know why I didn't blurt it out the moment I met her......uncharacteristic of me to show any restraint......and she is a perfectly nice woman....doing well with her self-management .....walking and losing weight ....I am pleased with her progress.....hmmmmm

Ok,so.......it is pet peeves times.....for starts......there are flip flops......beachwear, trendy......but annoying in closed quarters, especially where sound reverberates.......clients in flip-flops cannot be avoided .....but co-workers ....that is something else altogether ......flipflops are not on most lists of approved office apparrel...for good reason.....things dropped on bare toes can raise liability issues......mean dietitians who step on said toes.....oooopps......didn't see ypu standing there......this has only happened in my mind.....mind you......but it could yet happen before too long.....ironically .......I hear the flipflops but fail to hear so many other office sounds.....sometimes the nurse next door plays enya.......always enya......and I only notice it now and again.......like I stop hearing it after I have identified the sound.......and I can also tune out screaming children......shots bring out the worst in the under-6 crowd........but those flipping flipflops ...........oy

ok, so i didn't share all of my unfinished blogs.....just the ones that i am unlikely to return to....for whatever reason.......i say this.....and sure shooting i will come back to any or all of the aforementioned thought processes......ah well........sometimes i wish that i could just leave my brain in park........
