Sleepy

I had to pick up my poor father at the hospital this morning. He was having a procedure, but my mom totally just dropped him off there at 6 this morning and then they called me when it was over and then again after they woke him up. The problem is, they put him to sleep and tried to do it and all, but couldn't so now he has to reschedule and do it all over again. And he was so pathetic after I got him home that I felt really bad about going back to work, especially after they made me sign that paper that said I would be responsible for him for the next 24 hours and wouldn't let him make any important business or personal decisions. Which I don't think he is, because he fell asleep twice before I even left and I called him about an hour ago and he said he was still in the same place-he hadn't even moved since I left him there at 11. I totally haven't seen him much lately, but he calls to check in with me every few days. He's such a good dad.

I read an excellent book the other day. The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picault, in case you care to read it. I've liked everything I've ever read by her, but this was a little different. And it had a little puzzle in it! I bought it Saturday night because my friends and I are so exciting that while we were waiting for a table at Outback, we went to Sam's Club and wandered around. And I found some books! Also, some pillows, but I didn't buy them. I did have a Wallaby Darned once we finally got our table at Outback and by the way, it is a very good drink even though it sounds silly.

Also, I totally can't believe that even though in my last post I mentioned both Canada and Jeopardy, I didn't mention that Alex Trebek is Canadian!

I LOVE Picoult. My favorite has been My Sisters Keeper. I haven't read The Tenth Circle yet, but if you say its excellent then its on my to-do list.

Your poor dad! I still feel sorry for him, although Versed is some good stuff!
