Athelia & Bee's


I had a somewhat wacky day yesterday. The wackiness started when I got to work. They have finally posted our text book list online for fall semester & I was looking for the books I need online since it is usually cheaper if you order early. Well, I went onto Ebay & found the set I need and the auction was 6 mins from ending. I won them it even with shipping, I saved $20!
I was going downtown for work and I looked down and a bee was sitting on my thumb. I didn't freak & just rolled down the window & let him out. Small note, I am deathly allergic to bees. I don't freak out around them because we have an understanding. I don't mess with them & they don't mess with me. It seems to work because I haven't been stung since I was 3.
When I get home & do my homework, I see a wasp on my school bag. Don't know what all the stinging insects mean, but for the rest of the day, it felt like bugs were crawling on me...
When I do my homework I use Mosby's Medical Dictionary. Mosby's has the best pictures. so gnarly. As I was looking up something to do with the "aorta", my eyes flashed to "Athelia" probably because it's so close to how I spell my name. Well I look at it & it means "The congenital absence of one or both nipples". I totally had to call Kiki & Drummergirl & then my mom to thank her for leaving the "i" out of my name. I tried to find pictures of it but had no luck.
Right after that I get a call from Katie, an old friend from Tower Books. I haven't talked to her in at least a year and a half. She ends up coming over & we chat for a few hours. She is now a surgical technician & was telling me all her cool stories from the OR. BTW, Mockula, Katie says "Hi!" and congratulations on the arrival of little Mockulita.
After she left, my brother tells me that the Beast is now saying "Up". This is huge! he'll be 4 in august and he still isn't talking. This is the time where if he is going to talk, he will start doing it now & if he doesn't start talking, he may never. So cool!
FYI, I key worded "Mystical Bee" and this is the picture I found on Google Image... I thought it was more than appropriate considering there are nipples and she is a "Bea".... Sorry for those of you who will never be able to un-see it....
