My 17-year old is recovering from tonsilectomy, partial adenoidectomy, and incision in the timpanic membrane. Not comfortable! Grandpa won't give permission to turn on the a/c, so J is particularly miserable upstairs in his hot-hot-hot bedroom with two fans blowing on him. I've since given him a couple of frozen juice jugs and a collar to wear around his neck. Anyhow, earlier he was asking my (manic) father, "Grandpa, have you ever heard of ear drops?" And Grandpa replied,

"Teardrops?

"No eardrops."

"Oh yes. There's all kinds of drops. Ear drops and eye drops, nose drops and toe drops. There's raindrops and lemon drops and popcycle pops, no ... those are pops, let's see ...."

I felt like I was listening to Bubba in "Forrest Gump" detailing all the different ways of preparing shrimp.

Laughing here ... when I'm not going batty.
