FUN WITH BECK AND JOHN







We had to wait a really long time for a table at the cafe this morning. Then we had to wait a really long time for our food. I got bored. So, I whipped out the camera and started taking pictures of John. Figured we needed a record of his nekkid face, since it's something you don't see more than once a decade, or so. Lucky for him, I had just put the camera away again, when he made the best face of all. You know, that one where your eyes bug out, your cheeks blow up, and your head spasms forward, all at the same time? Then he leaped up, made a beeline for the bathroom, and lost those meds that probably weren't meant to be taken on an empty stomach. Guess he never should have glanced over at that guy next to us, who was pouring salsa over a huge oval plate that was layered with biscuits, bacon, gravy and cheese! Can't say that I blame him. Made me wanna toss my cookies, too.

He just doesn't look like my dad without facial hair. Are his eyebrows gone to? Or are they just really light in this picture.

Don't worry, he still has eyebrows. He just shaved off the beard and mustache because they were getting in the way of stuff at the hospital. Also, the mercurochrome that they swabbed his neck incisions with got on his beard and dyed the grey parts orange!

Ooooo, that's a first for me! Never have seen someone pouring salsa on biscuits and gravy---maybe a dash of Tabasco. It must have looked like a plate of tie-dye! Aside from his naked face John looks like he's recuperating well---good color and smiling! You're doing a good job Nurse Beck!

It wasn't the salsa that bothered me, as much as the massive amount of food and fat all swirled together. I can see gravy on biscuits, though I'm not a fan, and I can see cheese on biscuits, but to see 5 or 6 biscuits, with half a package of bacon, an inch of greasy gravy, and then a pile of cheese? With blood red rivulets running through it all? Gaaaaaggg!
