The Crazy Hospital Meme

1. What is the strangest thing that has ever happened to you in a hospital (besides your illness)? Not enough towels? No condiments? Can't get your favorite channels? Come on, you can tell me. **Or....maybe this answer doesn't involve you being the patient.** a year ago, my dad's room mate was quite a character. He'd talk out loud all the time, we could never figure out if he was talking to us or talking to himself... he did both often.

2. If you had your choice of IV cocktails, what would you choose? something with xanax.


3. Tell us your funniest hospital story. My parents were visiting me when my blind date showed up. Yup. I had a blind date while I was in the hospital. He said it was either true that I was hospitalized or the worst way he'd ever been dumped.


4. Do you have any hospital phobias? oh yes, I didn't even go visit people in the hospital. So being in there myself was quite a trip. I told my doctor about my anxiety, though, and he finagled me a private room. There is no way I would have lasted with a roomie. I still have anxiety going to visit people but at least now I can go.

5. Imagine you are in bed trying to get some sleep after a long night of interruptions by the nurse on duty who would NOT stop waking you up to see if you were asleep...It is 3am. You finally get to sleep. She comes in at 3:15 and wakes you up again. What happens next? I started crying. It happened to me. She finally gave me something to help me sleep and off I went to la-la land.


6. You are stuck in the elevator with an attractive person of the opposite sex. You notice there is no wedding band. Do you strike up a conversation? If so, what is the first thing you would say? I don't know, it would depend on my mood or why I was at the hospital.


7. A very odd patient wanders into your room from the upstairs psychiatric ward. What do you do? call the nurse

A blind date at the hospital -- I love it! In fact, I can imagine it happening in a sitcom. Have you thought of wacky adventures of a teacher in a town at the end of the earth? The regular sets would be your classroom, your living room and, of course, Al's ...

Did you ever finish that blind date once you got out of the hospital?

We did date for a while, but wanted different things from a relationship so it didn't work out.
