Speaking of awful

I forgot my tasty Thai food leftovers today, and ended up going out for Chinese food (again. I basically live off of Chinese food at lunch).

Today's awful fortune cookie fortune: "You could profit greatly in medical research".

Seriously. And this was at a different restaurant than the last one.

It's not like I'm going to stop eating Chinese food about this sort of thing, but I might stop eating the fortune cookies.

Perhaps you'll be spending more time as a standardized patient next semester? That would be profitable. ;)

Can I practice CPR on her =-) ???

[identity profile] featherynscale.livejournal.com 2005-10-24 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Could be. I'm certainly up for it, if you'll have some more Saturdays. Nobody's more standardized than I am. :)

i might even be on the ball enought to send out a schedule for next semester today... (maybe)

Once ASSASSINS is over, i'll have plenty of time on my hands ... is there a way i could get a hold of one of those schedules as well? Could use the extra work (and, as a sleep apnea patient and the offsping of medical pofessionals, I'm certainly accustomed to the hospital atmosphere...)

Alas I'm in a hiring freeze right now. (Which is Complete CRAP. I tell you.) When that is lifted - belive me everyone will know. Till then, (and I've no idea when "then" will be, I can only use folks who've already been working with us.

No prob ... you know where I am :-)

Hey -- I've just discovered that somebody I work with is in Assassins with you. He was a late replacement. Looking forward to seeing the show...

[identity profile] malvito.livejournal.com 2005-10-24 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Too cool ... which one? Is it the guy replacing Sam Byck?

[identity profile] saffronhare.livejournal.com 2005-10-24 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know the role (forgot to ask). His name is Bob. Say hello for me? He says you have a wonderful singing voice.

[identity profile] malvito.livejournal.com 2005-10-24 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, Bob. Did indeed replace Sam Byck; who, in turn, replaced Zangara, who had come down with a nasty bug. Had seen Bob in several shows and wanted to work with him, so i'm flattered that he should compliment my voice. Will indeed say Hi.

::Hums Everybody's Got the Right to be Happy and goes off wondering if I can swing a free evening to see the show before it ends.::

I certainly hope so

This is one that is only made worse, no more funny, by adding "...in bed."

[identity profile] featherynscale.livejournal.com 2005-10-24 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Doom. Just. Doom.
Not that I don't do research in bed, but not really medical research, you know?

*volunteering to be a guinea pig* =-)

you realize that not eating the fortune cookie doesn't make the fortune go away, just that now you wont know what new and twisted fortune is in store for you. However twisted they may be i'm now looking forward to you coming back from lunch and telling me what the fortune of the day is. LOL

Zachary got a nasty fortune last week. Maybe the fortune cookie maker was having a bad day and there are all these nasty fortunes going all over the US. Heh.

Do you remember what it said? I'm starting a collection.

[identity profile] beccak1961.livejournal.com 2005-10-24 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll have to ask him if he remembers. I just remember thinking it was a slam.

No, I'm sorry, it's medical experiments for the lot of you.

yeah, that sounds like a plan.
