Multitasking Fool

So, I'm sitting here waiting while my daughter has her orthodontics appointment and asked myself, "self, what can you do for the next 30 minutes?" Angry birds? Tempting. Text husband. Check (that took .45 seconds). Write in blog? Hmmm. So here I sit, me and my iPhone (greatest invention ever) writing down random thoughts.

Blogger, you have just opened up the world of multi tasking during short waiting times such as.. Waiting to pick up the kids at school, waiting for.., Oh dang she's already done.

Rethinking my angry bird choice.

I'm back home now.  Have a few seconds to add a picture and finish my thought.  So, back to the orthodontist.   Let me be clear.  Love our orthodontist, Dr. Joseph Feller.  Great bedside manners (very important to the Staples' sisters), positive staff, great incentives.

Love and mushy comments aside.  Every time I go in,  I can't help but count the number of patients, multiplied by 30 minutes, multiplied by $4,000+ per patient over an 18 month period.  After all that brain power, the first word that comes to mind is.  (Forgive me).    Damn.  (you know you were thinking it or at least "dang").

I hear that Mormons have good brainwashing powers.  If that's the case, I am brainwashing at least one of my kids to look into orthodontics school.
