Day Forty-Nine: Hospital Visit

8/1/14, 11:59 PM PDT

This morning, went over to Urgent Care to finally get a diagnosis on this sickness that I've had for three days now. Considering my only symptoms are headaches and fevers, it probably wasn't anything life threatening, but we went just so we could finally know what it might be since my mom had no idea what I was sick with.

Nah, I'm kidding, it was just a mild respiratory infection, they gave me some Motrin, antibiotics, and an inhaler and sent us on our merry way to the local pharmacy to get the prescriptions. While waiting, my sister and I explored the place and found this rack of greeting cards. Here's some of our favorites from the pile.

I liked it just for its sheer poetic power.

I can see it in your eyes...

Of course, I sent this card to Samantha.

We also found these Coke thingies that had people's names on them. I couldn't find one that said "Christina" nor could I find one that said my name, but Angela sent me a picture with my name on it before, so at least I have the comfort of knowing my name's on one of these bottles somewhere.

Kaylatte's cup.

Brand-O-Lakes' beaker.

Notice how Angela's bottle was the only one not
a Diet coke. 

Mom was pretty impressed with these bottles too, because afterwards, we went to Vons just to look for bottles that had our names on it. Along the way, I ran into the radiant Ivan, who grew a beard over summer vacation. Dear Jesus, it looks MAJESTIC AS HELL.

Ladies, Ivan is single and ready to mingle. Hit him up!

In the end, my mom couldn't find Coke bottles with any of our names on it. The closest we had was one that said "Meg."

So now we're boycotting Coke until we get our own personalized Coke bottles. 

Yeah, they'll be feeling our wrath at the end of this fiscal year.

RFotD: During the summer of 2014, Coke stopped at over 500 places in the USA to give visitors a chance to personalize their own Coke mini-cans.

SGAT: None. I'm on vacation mode, alright?
