Magic milk

So it's been a while, but that doesn't mean nothing has happened!  As always my life is full of random moments that keep me laughing.

I'm currently in Augusta, GA and so far it's been great.  I'm only 3 hours from the grandparents and family and have been there twice already.  While I was here last week we picked up grandma's car from an oil change and on our way to the grocery store discovered the speedometer wasn't working...we appeared to be going 80 in a 45.  Later that day I was driving the car and realized the speedometer was telling us kilometers per hour instead of miles.  She'd recently had the battery changed and somehow it has converted to the metric system.  At least it was an easy fix.

Last week I walked into a patient's room, and the patient's son was looking out the window that looks at the ER, and he exclaims "I can't believe my neighbor is going to the ER!"  This cracked me up because the poor neighbor is probably going to get grilled about that later!  There isn't much privacy in the South sometimes!

And finally, I have magic milk!  I am living in a "corporate apartment" which also functions as a bed and breakfast.  I had bought some milk and put my room number on it and left it in the fridge in the shared kitchen.  I was gone for a few days and when I got home I realized there was definitely less milk than when I left.  No biggie, it's just milk.  That night I get home and put something in the fridge and I have way more milk!!  It's like magic!  But I don't really want to drink that milk now.

And here's a link to my latest hiking adventure.  Tallulah Gorge is so cool, even if the stairs will almost kill you!  I think it was definitely worth it.  https://flic.kr/s/aHsk3DPPEr
