night:
a "couple date" with friends from church.
we're nervous.
we hope they like us,
and that they'll want to see us again sometime soon.
afternoon:
power outage at work.
i wish it was like being in school, when you'd pray that the power would go out.
instead it's just a huge headache
and grumpy patients being rescheduled.
lunch:
nachos & coke in a bottle.
i took the bottle with me as i drove around doing little errands.
it felt like coca cola should have been filming me with some awesome music in the background .
mid morning:
angry phone call from disgruntled patient.
have i mentioned how much i love working in health care?
no?
because i don't.
not really.
morning:
rain.
hot chocolate.
rain.
wet. hair.
why bother getting ready at this point?
couple dates are super stressful. remember, you have to like them too! hehe. it's hard because four people have to be happy, not just two...
ReplyDeleteKate I like you. Let's go on a couples date. PS I often feel that way about coke!
ReplyDeleteI want to go on a couples date! and vanilla coke is my favorite. It is bad. I could drink it all day long. Jared thinks it is the devil.
ReplyDeletecouplw dates are stressful because lando is not one to force conversation. if the husbands are jiving it's awkward.
ReplyDeleteSmile when you answer the phone and picture each person you are talking to in a rock band, what would a 80 year old man look like in a rock band? Drink a Coke. Pretend your couple date are the coolest people you have ever met! and treat them that way. Pretend the whole night you are being filmed for the next funniest home video segment. And Sing in the Rain! I know sounds like such lame mother advice ha ha Love ya MOM
ReplyDeletewe rarely like the same couples. (j and me)
ReplyDeletewe take turns hanging out with the couple that the other person likes. its rough. we haven't found our soulmates yet. and let's face it, in indiana?
i love this post!!! i wish i had thought of this rewind thing.
ReplyDeletei hope your couple date went well. i'm sure they liked you guys!
I am in love with this post! So clever. I love couples dates. I always worry I'll become a Friends episode though. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I gave you a little award on my blog. Go check it out, share some new facts about you, and pass it on! :)
Grrr couple dating is hard. LOL
ReplyDeleteps. I love your blog.
I'll take my apple blossoms and raise you five dead frost bitten trees from our jacked up AZ winters! My anxiety for summer makes it almost impossible for me to enjoy these glory days. On a scale of 1 to 10 Portland vs Phoenix (ten favoring portland) what would you choose? You can do that now that you've survived a winter there with your cute scarves and your coffee shop dates...luckies.
ReplyDeleteI love you. and I love catching up on your blog. Miss you.
ReplyDeleteKate,
ReplyDeleteI found the mobile in this shop.

They aren't listed anymore, but I'm sure she'd make one if someone asked. She made mine bigger than her other ones... she is very accomidating
when it comes to couple dates, i'm always so grateful for clint and his ability to get along with anyone & everyone, and make anyone & everyone laugh. makes it much less stressful.
