Dominoes Rules

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

I’ve become picky when it comes to my pizza these days. If it isn’t Dominoes, thin crust with extra pepperoni then I’m just not happy. I can’t stand a soggy thick crust that is all mushie in my mouth, just the texture of it makes my stomach queasy. Pizza Hut and Papa Johns just don’t cut it in my book.

Cheer It Up Some, Please……

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

It must suck to have to wear the same old lab coat day in and day out. The only good thing I can imagine is that you never have to worry about what to wear that day, only needing to make sure that your limited supply of lab coats are clean and wrinkle free and what shoes to wear.

So many of today’s medical professionals can choose from a variety of scrub uniforms that we are seeing more and more of out and about in our daily lives. The ones that are geared for the pediatric sector are really cute. I’m sure it makes a difference for the kids that they deal with each day and hopefully cheer up the place as well. Lord knows a busy pediatrics office can use all the cheering up that they can get. I can’t imagine working in that environment with all the crying and screaming kids day after day after day……..

Flea Market

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

Although the weatherman was calling for rain all day yesterday, we never saw any, not one drop. So I decided to take a trip to the flea market and walk around and see what good deals I could find on any treasures. Not many vendors had showed up due to the weather forecast so it was kind of empty. I didn’t find anything, but the fresh air and the exercise did me good.

Recycle Those Paper Version Phone Books

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

I’m tossing out (actually I’m recycling) my local phone books. There are so darn many of them and they just take up a lot of room and don’t get used, as long as I have access to the Internet that is.  When I need to find or get information about some one or some place I get it quickly while I’m online. I can’t even remember the last time I looked anything up in any of the paper version phone books. So out the door they go and a good riddance.

Like earlier today I spent some time online looking for a decent San Francisco auto repair center. I went to repairpal.com and found several that seemed to match my needs. My honda accord which is my only means of transportation is in need of a new timing belt and I don’t want to use any of my charge cards that I have in my wallet for several well known auto service centers. I’m determined not to use any of my credit cards, it’s a challenge but it’s working for me.

Domino’s Pizza

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

I’m glad that the few top pizza companies in our area are currently having a pizza war. Calling the pizza man to deliver a pizza used to be a fast and affordable meal, but those days have long gone by the way side. Besides the cost of the pizza, there is a delivery charge, along with tax and of course you must tip the driver as well and I’d consider myself a good tipper. That all adds up, but if that what it takes to get a pizza delivered you do what you gotta do.

I have been a fan of Domino’s thin crust pizza most of my life. The more cheese and pepperoni that is piled on it the better.  Since the prices are being cut, due to the competition I can afford to order it more often!
