Photo Shoot

Most people that know The Mayor think he's a serious kind of person. If you ask him about education, church, basketball, or home improvements he's all business. But what keeps our family smiling is that this guy is pretty funny. He likes to make us laugh.

Yesterday he went to a little out patient center to have some pictures taken of his insides. Gross. I doubt I'll be scrapbooking them. The Mayor told me it was no big deal; the doctor just likes to have a picture day so he can show us the pretty snap shots of his esophagus.

They gave him some type of medication that made him forget the photo shoot. The doctor told me the Mayor would keep repeating himself until the medication totally wore off.

No problem.

No problem for the first five minutes, then it was a problem.

He kept telling me the doctor said he could have a smoothie.

He told me that about five or six times.

Okay so he wanted a smoothie.

Then he told me something that had happened as he went into surgery that he THOUGHT was funny.

Then he told me again,

and again,

and again,

and again.

It wasn't that funny to begin with. He was medicated so I'll forgive him for not being as witty as he usually is. So the first time he told me I laughed a little, I knew he thought it was funny and I thought it would be nice to let him think he was funny. But seriously I laughed harder every time he told me the story. It just wasn’t funny, but he really thought it was. He didn't appreciate me mocking him. The last time he tried to tell me was in the car on the way home. I was laughing so hard I was tearing. It hurt his drug induced feelings, which made me laugh even harder. Poor Mayor. I was hoping the medication was still working and would help him forget the whole thing. He remembers the ride home.

I think he forgave me after I bought him a smoothie.

* my camera was dead yesterday so I had to use the pictures from last time.

Same guy same awesome hospital gown.
