I woke up at 6:!0am today. A fun thing to do if there is a purpose behind it. My purpose? Mom fell off her bike yesterday and hurt her elbow, and I had to drive her to a hospital an hour and a half away. We waited, having been told "no guarantees" because we didn't have an appointment. I crocheted on a bookmark, and after about an hour we decided to go somewhere else. Mom got an X-ray, and her ulna's broken. This is bad news, of course, but it could be worse. She broke her wrist a few years back, and the pain from that was so bad she was fainting and throwing up. This time around she says its like an ache. Oddly enough, she doesn't want to get a cast on it this week, as she has to use that hand for a few things on Saturday. Crazy, wonderful woman.
In related news, while waiting for mom to be x-rayed, I was waiting in a room with at least five college athletes waiting to get their physicals. Now, I try very hard to not be a intellectual elitist, I treat everybody the same as well as I can until they prove they are different. One cannot gauge intelligence by the outside, not by their haircut, sense of style, or how low their pants are. The problem is, they made me uncomfortable. You cannot win with guys like this if they are interested. Either you are nice to them, and they are encouraged, or you are mean to them, and they want you to like them, so they try harder. It makes me unhappy. Overall, I would like to be left alone. Oh, well.
I forgot! My dad's birthday was yesterday. Happy Birthday to him, he's thirty years minus three days older than me. We went to see Indiana Jones 4 with him. Entertainment at its prettiest.
See you soon,
Greeny
