Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

My friend Shannon got this e-mail from her gym on Friday:

Hello,

Please excuse this interruption of your day, this is your Aquatics Department Head at Lifetime Fitness giving you a friendly hello and wishing you a great day!

We have another piece to the puzzle concerning the frequent pool closures and are trying to share it with as many of our members as possible. The “bubblers” at the shallow end of the pool, those fountains of fun shooting up from the floor are great fun and entertainment for the young ones but we have noticed that the last two closures have been the result of older children not controlling their bowel movements and so believe that the “bubblers” also act as an enema. When children plant their bottoms on or above the jets they are at risk of losing control of their BMs.

I have been trying to inform parents with children frolicking in the “bubblers”. Once again they are a lot of fun, to play in, run through, run hands through and what not but children should not plant themselves over the jets.

I hope that this helps! See you on the pool deck!

I don’t get to blog for real. Takes away from my study time. But I can pop on briefly if I want. Yeah, that’s right! Take that, stupid attempts at discipline!! See, the first day I’d set to take this exam was 7/19, then 7/25, and my scores aren’t high enough. Now I feel a lot of pressure to get this thing DONE! I took part of an exam I’d taken before yesterday, and I got 85%, not my usual 60%. Seems every new exam is completely new material, so previous studying of items I got wrong doesn’t seem to help. It’s very annoying. Anyhoo, enough of that, gotta get a few more z’s, then hit the exams again. In the meantime, enjoy this silly comic:

Please. I implore you. No more wonderful photos, no more amusing Twitters, no more delightful songs I must hear, no more great people from my past emerging, no more television that surprises and amuses me, no more fascinating images I need to capture, no more wonderful friends offering your time to me, no more great movies, no more delicious food, no more great upcoming gigs, no more great options for my future. All I need from you right now, world, is fascinating and illuminating conversation about the physiology of the mind, abnormal psychopathology, and psychological assessment.

Thanks for your understanding.

With greatest sincerity (and with my tongue firmly implanted in my cheek),

Abby (still the most ADD person you’ll ever meet)
