The Dentist, Chicken, and the King

Yesterday I drove from Marianna to Wynne to visit my dentist. I love my dentist! I love my dental hygienist! I am a very good patient. BUT my hygienist had the nerve to have her baby early! I had a sub who I had never met before. Now I don't know what you know about dental procedures, but I know I don't like surprises! This girl was nice enough but my goodness she was rough. I mean jabbed my gums a couple of times, didn't give me my obligatory carmex, AND I didn't even get to choose my polishing paste! What's up with that?!?

Tonight I decided to bake lemon peppered chicken, mac-n-cheese, and organic green beans. At least my family survived choking it down! I really can not cook. If I ever win the lottery I am going to hire a chef to cook every meal! Why you may ask wouldn't I just hire Rachel Ray to teach me to cook....because I DON'T WANT TO LEARN!!!!! I have enough "learned" crap in my brain already thank you very much. I am into downsizing these days. Until I win the lottery.....eat at my house at your own peril.

Today Elvis "The King" Presley would have been 74 years old. Some generations have important death dates to remember like where they were when they heard the news for example: man walked on moon, JFK got shot, Bobby Kennedy got shot, MLK shot, and so on. Not my generation....we know where we were when The King died. I was watching cartoons with my 2 cousins. Back in the day we only had 3 channels out of Memphis and oh yeah, the pbs station which makes 4. LOL Anyhoo, they cut in on our cartoons that day. I remember it was on every station and we were p.o.'d that Scooby had been interrupted. They showed the ambulance wheeling in to the emergency room and the announcement of his death. My family (sans me and the cousins) were devastated. It was a crappy weekend after that. Don't get me wrong, I really like Elvis but I was 9years old and I LOVED Scooby Doo. Flash forward to today...I am currently listening to Elvis on Direct.tv. It's good music. Seriously, it is...I soooo get it now.

Okay then.....Thank you. Thank you very much.
