Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

Penis And Peanuts

The nurse walked into the room and asked the patient if he was still 61. He didn't speak English, but his wife did. She began shaking her finger, nodding her head from side to side and saying, "No, no no."

What she thought the nurse asked was if he was still sexually active. Poor guy.

Later, this same nurse was grimacing, obviously in pain. Asked what was wrong, she moaned that she ate penis earlier and now her back hurt. Another nurse sympathized and said that she used to eat penis all of the time, but now it makes her stomach hurt.

They pronounce peanuts the same as penis. I knew what they meant, but as they continued to complain about penis I couldn't stand it any longer. I started laughing which ended the discussion.

Imagine if they got jobs in a ballpark selling peanuts. They would be yelling out PENIS!

That's funny!

I had a statistics prof who kept saying we'd be discussing sex. It took a long time to realize he meant "sets".

Do you prefer the salty Spanish Peanut or the raw Virginia Peanut?

Beajerry, what a disappointment that must have been.

Thanks, Michelle.

Gary, are you talking about peanuts or penis?
