Blog title refers to a delightful youtube video I think you should all look up POST HASTE.
Anyway: This blog entry involves MEMORIES FROM THE PAST!
Every year there is an open house which everyone in my program is obliged (read: forced) to participate in. As open house this year is fast approaching, I remembered a lovely tidbit from last year that I must have put away in the dark corners of my mind until now.
Last year our program's theme was a haunted carnival of sorts. We had games involving guessing types of sputum (or "phlegm" for all you non respiratory therapy buffs out there,) pig lungs set up on ventilators, etc. For every station you visited you got a delightful halloween themed sticker.
The first open house day is usually attended by highschool students forced there by their own schools, so the excitement level is usually pretty low. Nevertheless I am really pushing my sputum game and making lively chatter with the attendees, UNTIL!:
A group of guys comes up to my station, I'm gonna say they're around 15 or 16.
They feign interest at the sputum game, but since I'm a generous person I offer them stickers anyway.
I ask the guys if they want a pumpkin sticker, or a ghost, or maybe even a cute little kitten wearing a witch hat, and one of the guys, OBVIOUSLY the lady's man of the group says "I'll take the cat, I love pussy."
Hmm.
Perhaps he thought this would somehow bag him a successful older girlfriend but I'm not sold.
We exchange an awkward stare for a few seconds (mostly due to the fact he's a few inches shorter than me) and I tell him "Well you're not getting any from me so you can have a spiderweb sticker."
