Suns vs Jazz.... Crisis Management!!

Sorry there aren't any photos to go along with this entry (my camera is currently in the hospital) but it was funny none the less. After my Iron Girl Race Dave and I had planned to spend the day together and attend the Suns game that night (one of our most favorite passtimes). The only problem with this is that Dave was supposed to round on some of his patients in Peoria... if you are not familiar with Phoenix... it is about 45 mins away from our house. Since I had some studying and reading to do I decided to make the trek with him and just read in the car while he saw his patients. We also had planned that we would leave directly from the Hospital to the game. We were feeling really smart and well organized for this trek... I had munchies, water and all my books ready to go. You can see where this is going.......

We ended up getting to the hospital with no mishaps, but.... Dave's 3 patients to round on turned into 13.... 5 hours later I am getting a little sick of the car... I even made a trip to Lowe's (across from the street) and found a new toilet plunger that I just had to have. Finally Dave ran to the car and hops in ready to go..... and says "The game starts at 7 right??" I said, "Yes, that is what the internet said.... what does the tickets say??" then he says.... "Tickets??" You get the picture.... The tickets were sitting on the kitchen counter all organized and ready to go.... BTW Dave was incharge of tickets. So not only do we have 15 min to get to game... the tickets are at least 1 hour trek away and I have been sitting in the car reading organic chemistry for five hours.

So... We are trying to decide what to do next.... We get on freeway (I-17) and it is totally stopped (frequent occurance in Phoenix but frustrating none the less).... We both looked at each other and then Dave says to me....
"Do you know what were learned about in dbt lecture on Wednesday? Crisis Management!!" We both started laughing!!
That is what you get when you are married to the best Psychiatrist in the world!!

BTW With the help of Amber and Lizzie we got to game and SUNS WON!!!!!!

LOL...what a good, post. Thanks for sharing, it was funny to read. Five hours of studying {the same subject}...are you for real?!?!? ;){I guess I shouldn't be surprised, heck you practically lived at the library back when we were room mates...well until Dave came along.}
