the hearts and laserbeams blog!

recently blogger decided we can't publish my blog to my own website anymore so here we are! pardon the dust, and please visit us online at www.heartsandlaserbeams.com!

hearts and laserbeams is the wacky good-times art and design by me, steph calvert. i team up with robots, cupcakes, and stick people to show people art isn’t all about seriousness, missing ears, and deep thoughts; it can actually be tons of fun.

it seems like such a long, long time ago... but it was just this morning.

i had one of those yearly checkup type doctory appointments, and it was a complete scheduling disaster. the dr. office called my house yesterday at 2:30pm saying they needed to reschedule and could i come in at 8 instead of 9? i didn't get the message until i got home from work at 5:30, and they were already closed so i couldn't call and say hey, no prob, sign me up. so i went in to the doctor's office at 7:45 this morning and explained the situation and asked if they could still take me at 8. receptionist lady goes and checks with some people and says sure, doctor lady'll be here. so i get taken into the little room, i sit with a nurse and get my vitals taken, and then she tells me to get nekkid and sit on the table and wait for doctor lady.

i sit.

and sit.

and sit.

a half hour goes by, and another nurse apologizes, saying whoops doctor lady never got a confirmation yesterday that i was indeed coming in so she wouldn't be in at all and they needed to reschedule.

i think it was a game to see how long i'd sit on the table before asking questions. before 3 hours went by, someone caved, took pity on me, and told me the scoop so i could put my clothes on and not be so chilly. i mean, they gave me one of those little gown thingies, but they really aren't manufactured for warmth.

upside is i get to take more time off from work to go back to the doctor again next week.

cheers to gettin nekkid and sittin on tables.
