I had an embarrassing moment at work today……I felt so silly about it, even if it was not a big deal. Normally when we have a room to put a patient in, I would get a chart and go to the waiting room and get them. My usual way of doing that is to say something like, Mr. Jones, you can come on back now……..But today I grabbed the chart, opened up the door and said, Mr. Jones, you can come on down! LOL! Did I think this was the Price is Right??? And ‘Mr. Jones’ picked up on that and started laughing at me. He asked me if it was his turn to bid on the showcase showdown! LOL!
I’m not sure where I got ‘come on DOWN’ from…….that was crazy. Have you ever said something dumb like that when you meant to say something else? I guess my mind was wandering……
One time, I went to get a patient and instead of just OPENING the waiting room door, I KNOCKED!! LOL! I guess I thought that someone should come open it for me or something. But I was laughing so hard and felt too dumb, so I went away for a few minutes and hoped that no one noticed I had knocked on the door first……..
Another stupid thing that happened to me……….the other day, Kyle and I were at the grocery store. It was a place we had not been before, so we were kind of looking around at stuff. And I saw this drink display that made me laugh. One of the flavors of soda was called FUFU Berry!! I was laughing and I turned around to tell Kyle, ‘oh, FUFU berry! I love that!’ But it wasn’t Kyle standing there. It was some lady. And she just looked at me funny and said…. ‘yeah, that’s great.’
I felt like a complete spaz!! I guess she did not think FUFU berry was funny. But to me, it WAS! And then Kyle walked around the corner, and I had to admonish him for leaving me there to talk to some weird lady with no sense of humor…….LOL He was busy looking at really big fruit and was excited that they had papayas bigger than our heads…….LOL I think that both us are very easily entertained……
