you know your house is a giant petri dish when your dental hygienist calls for the fifth time to try to squeeze you in for an appointment. see, you missed the first one due to your own flu and the second one due to croup, the third try because no one wants to watch croupy kids, the fourth call you said "not today" due to general exhaustion and the fifth one you declined due to hand foot and mouth disease.
when i passed the news about the hand, foot and mouth along i overheard the receptionist in the background say "what have they caught now?" the nice hygienist then actually offered to stop by on her way home from work with some adult beverages. i told her just to bring the biggest needle she had in the office and i would just mainline some tequila straight into my veins! she agreed, i am pretty sure i will hear a knock at my door around 4:30 when their office closes. before she hung up she said "n., i am praying for you!"
