Black Friday

So, do I seem like the type to you that wakes up at 4 am, gets in line and starts fighting for the goods?

Nope.

I come from a long line of great shoppers...well, my mom is a great shopper. People who know me in person know this because most likely if you tell me you like my shirt, coat, sweater, pants etc I am probably going to reply that my mom got it. She also probably got it on sale or at TJ Maxx. I love TJ Maxx, don't get me wrong, but no one finds deals at TJ Maxx like my mom does. And yet, you will not see my mom hitting any stores on Black Friday.

I, also, DO NOT hit the stores bright and early. There is really no deal good enough for me to wake up early on a day I do not have to work. I slept until 8 this morning and it was beautiful (by the way, that's extremely late for me, but my body clock has been adjusted a bit since I haven't been to work in so long). Even though I am not part of the 4 am crowd I did do a little shopping today. I hit up Michael's to get the goods to make Christmas cards at 25% my whole purchase and then I made a slight detour to Old Navy where I got two sweaters, a sweater dress and an awesome scarf for $50 (saved $46 wooo). Yeah...I didn't do any shopping for anyone else, but at least I will be well dressed, haha. Seriously though, if you felt how freezing it is in my classroom you would understand my need for sweaters.

On another note, I had my records from my last visit with the doctor regarding my knee sent to me so I can bring them to my new doctor. They include all the notes my doctor wrote...

"This is a 5 foot, 5 inch female appearing younger than stated age. She is awake, alert, appropriate, interactive and cooperative..."

WHAT? LOL. Is this normally what doctors write because I laughed out loud when I saw this? Not that I am ever going to mind people saying I look younger but...is that really important to my knee? And also, if I looked OLDER than my age, would they seriously write that? Someone could get pretty offended! At least I know I can use my student discount for a few more years...

Secondly..."awake"- do people generally go to the doctor's office asleep???

I am also glad that I am appropriate and cooperative cuz behind his back I am thinking about how much doctors piss me off and how not helpful that appointment was.

But seriously, now at my next appointment I'm going to be paying attention to this sort of thing. I have to make sure I look awake enough and act interactive. I wouldn't want him to write that I was boring...or inappropriate. And what exactly is inappropriate when it comes to a doctor's appointment?

Kinda wondering what a 25 year old is supposed to look like...Do they learn this in med school?
