Everytime I hear the word Dentist…

Posted by Sean on September 1, 2011

This is what I think of. A big thanks to Bill Cosby for making my childhood extremely entertaining.
After watching this video, I realized that the younger generation would not really appreciate this skit, since the Dentist doesn’t even use the spit bowl anymore.
This stand up performance is still one of my all-time favorites.

Oh. By the way, I’ve been to the Dentist recently.

Cravin’ my coffee

This whole ‘decrease your coffee’ intake adventure is not going well. I’ve made the vain attempt to drink Green Tea in the afternoon when I’m ‘JONESIN’ for a cup’o Joe. Up until now, it’s been OK. I mean Green Tea just doesn’t taste the same.

-*humpf*-

Now that I spend my afternoons doing some studying or some form of schoolwork – I associate the scholarly activities with …… COFFEE!

I don’t know if it’s the taste I miss?

Maybe it’s just the smell?

I mean I do ‘doctor up’ my coffee with flavored creamer (French Vanilla).

(Insert loud & child-like moan and groan)

Help.

A horrificly vengeful naughty nurse – is still a naughty nurse.

Such imagery, which we call the “naughty-axe,” unites the profession’s naughty and battle-axe images into one unsavory package of sex and violence, and so it suggests that nursing is all about mindless feminine extremes, rather than life-saving work for skilled professionals of both genders.

It truly is a shame that the public still doesn’t grasp the concept or understand the frustration we nurses have every single time this ridiculous stereotype is used – in no matter what context.
Sorry folks, having the ‘naughty nurse’ as a vengeful murderer sure doesn’t help the overall image of our career.

Ahh, the battle continues.
