Can I be Frank with You?
It's nice and refreshing to be totally honest and upfront with people. I know it's easy, and sometimes expected to say the "right" thing, or a polite comment rather than the truth. I often get tired of this and just want to be honest and say what's really on my mind.
So...frankly, I admit:
- If I could scarf down old-fashioned donuts and chocolate milk for all my meals, I would be three hundred pounds and completely happy.
- I feel pretty sexy when a new coat of nail polish finds its way to my tootsies.
- If another doctor asks me dosing for pain meds one more time, I will request we switch paychecks.
- Eye exams make me anxious.
- I like dogs more than most people.
- I don't know how to swim. I mean, I could probably figure it out if needed.
- After a 12 hour shift, I crave adult conversation that doesn't have anything to do with diapers. Or IV's. Or NG tubes.
- #idontunderstandhashtags. Looks like an easy way to bypass essential things like grammar and such.
- I dream in black and white sometimes.
- Child's pose is my favorite yoga position.
- I read a medical dictionary when I'm bored.
- I have no idea how long that carton of milk has been in my fridge.
- When I work night shifts, I fantasize about the day shift hauling their butts out of bed and coming to work to relieve me.
- Flossing is one of my least favorite hygienic activities.
- I didn't pierce my ears until I was 19.
Now, be frank with me...

I love the honesty here Whit! I sometimes wish that when someone asked how I was doing, I could tell them the truth (and vice versa). I'm going to try that next time...It will catch people way off guard.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. So, how are you? Be honest.
DeleteI admit:
ReplyDelete- I often forget to eat or drink when I'm working on a spreadsheet
- I feel invincible when I'm riding my bicycle downhill
- ALL exams make me anxious
- I correct people's grammar in my head all day every day. Pronoun antecedent agreement is a pet peeve. If you're talking about a person WHO is doing something, you say (or write) WHO, not THAT. i.e.: "The guy that made the winning shot" is WRONG... it's "The guy WHO made the winning shot", people! Get it right! Gaaah!
- I have somniphobia. Yep. Fear of sleep. I fight it every night even if I am exhausted and know I need the rest.
Yep. About as frank as I'll be in a public forum. :) Love your blog!
You crack me up, Jill! Feel free to correct my grammar anytime;)
