Learned Something New Today at Work
[Ring, ring.]
RPh: Hi, thank you for calling ___________ Pharmacy. How may I help you?
Caller: Do you take __________?
RPh: Yes, just bring your card with your prescription.
Caller: You got Xanax, Handlebars, and Codeine syrup?
RPh: Xanax what?
Caller: Handlebars.
RPh: Handlebars? What is that?
Caller: Handlebars. I mean, Xanax.
RPh: What strength of Xanax?
Caller: I dunno. I have to check my prescription. It's a white tablet.
RPh: Hmmm. No, I don't have any in stock.
Caller: What about codeine syrup?
RPh: What kind of codeine syrup?
Caller: Promethazine with codeine syrup.
RPh: How much do you need?
Caller: Eight.
RPh: I don't have that either.

It actually took me a little while to figure out that "Handlebars" was the slang term for Xanax. We learned a few slang terms for drugs in school, but that was for illegal drugs. I'm very thankful I work in a pharmacy inside a store and with a security officer. I don't know what it was about today, but I had another person call me three times to try to get her fake prescriptions. All before noon!

Let Them Eat Pizza
Tonight, Sean had his first taste of pizza. Well, the crust at least. I picked up some pizza after work and when Sean saw us eating it, he wanted to eat some too. So I gave him a little of my crust. He had seconds and was so happy. I think he likes eating real food better than baby food.
