Anyone seen a woman who’s pretty much a female version of me only not just as good looking wondering around this joint? 

[drlaurensheehan]

Unless it’s literally your face with some long blonde hair, I think I’ll need a little more to go on.

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

“— Lauren? Wait a sec!”

[drlaurensheehan]

---Oh, hey Haddie. What’s up?

[doctorcharming-deactivated20150]

Seattle’s having a heat wave.

[doctorcharming-deactivated20150]

Very true, but that doesn’t mean we have to stop trying to make the most of this good weather.

[drlaurensheehan]

True. I just have a feeling I’ll be doing most of it in scrubs.

[doctorcharming-deactivated20150]

Seattle’s having a heat wave.

I’m planning on making the most of this amazing weather.

[drlaurensheehan]

Seems kind of hard to do when we’re stuck inside this hospital all day.

[jackbarington]

So it’s my niece’s birthday today...

[jackbarington]

I do love them but I need to think first because I say Yes to stuff like that. I will do just that. I’d rather not deviate from the recipe.

[drlaurensheehan]

Yeah, sometimes you say yes and then you’re not sure what you did that for? I get it. Just a little baking tip, since your niece will probably appreciate a cake in one piece.

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

I haven’t, no. I think that’s partly because I never really get to see her, and partly because I’m afraid she’ll react the way I assume she does. But next time I got a couple of minues on my hand, I will walk straightinto her office and tell her. Because the waiting and uncertainty is slowly killing me. — Now that you say it, probably not. But I’d rather change my hair color than do something drastically, ya know?

[drlaurensheehan]

Well, maybe you’ll feel better if you just tell her, you know? Rip off the bandaid. ---Of course, I’ve never been in this situation before so I can’t really give you advice, but whether you tell her or not, you’ll always be my family. Have you thought about switching from white to wheat? Changed my life. No but seriously Haddie, before you go out and buy the hair product, we should figure out what you really want.

[jackbarington]

So it’s my niece’s birthday today...

And somehow I convinced my family I was going to make the cake?? “Don’t worry, I have Mum’s old recipe book!” 

[drlaurensheehan]

Gotta love your family, huh? If you have the recipe, you should be fine. Just don’t take any liberties. Follow it exactly. I’ve made that mistake before.

“Of course I’m just gonna invite myself over. I mean, it’s kinda a miracle we’re not living together yet, seeing as we already spent most our time at the other’s place. Or, I spent most of my freetime at your’s. Seems like I’m the one who got no life, eh? – I think I need a change, Lauren. I still had no chance of telling Addison, but I swear to whatever I believe in, I will tell her the next time I meet her. And then I need a change. What do you think, would being a blonde suit me?”

Haddie...you keep spare clothes and chargers at my place. We’re practically living together.I’m there when you are, so we are both equally pathetic, don’t worry. ---You haven’t told her yet? Haddie, you have to tell her. She’s your family in some kind of way, and from what I heard, she’s pretty nice. Intense, but nice. It’s not going to be like with your Dad. Blonde? Hmm...actually, yeah I could see it. But is changing your hair color really going to give you what you want?

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

Ah, so you just went along to get out into the wilde world, and because it was free? That’s really good to know, Laur, really good. – Don’t worry, I’m just shitting with you. And no, if you say it’s not broken, I’m gonna believe you. So scratch the consult and double the ice cream. Plus, you don’t have to deliver; I’ll just crash at your place later. ..Hand lotion or not, this is insane. How can your hands be soft and gentle at the same time? That’s unfair, that’s like being beautiful and pretty! – Which you both are, too. Shit, Lauren, you’ve got it all.

[drlaurensheehan]

Oh, you didn’t know? Woops. ---Okay, just keep the ice on it. Maybe you can avoid it swelling to the size of your whole head...that’s nice Haddie, just invite yourself over. You can just assume that I don’t have plans or house guests...actually, it is probably safe  to assume that. Always. --And what can I say, I was blessed with perfect hands. Really just all perfect features. That’s totally why I have male suitors lining up out the door. Besides, you’re like hot.I still get carded going into R-rated movies.

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

Okay - okay. You remember when we made this trip to the beach a real long time ago? Like, when I suddenly appeared at your door in my car, told you to grab your bag and tell your mom you’re back on Monday? And you actually did everything I asked you of? I think I’ve never really thanked you for that move, and for distracting me during this time. You’re such a great – Okay, this talking doesn’t really help taking my mind of my nose.. But has anyone ever told you that your hands are really soft? Respect.

[drlaurensheehan]

Yeah, well...who says no to a free trip to the beach, right? Haddie. Shh, okay? I really don’t think your nose is broken, but I can call in a consult if you’d like. I’ll also grab you something for the pain and some ice cream before I leave tonight--I even deliver. I’m just really sorry I head-butted you. I’m also really sorry your hands aren’t as soft as mine, but this is what you get for not carrying hand lotion around with you---something you judged me for might I add.

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

Well, I do need my nose for smelling and - and - and to not look like a complete idiot, or like Voldemort! If you just made me the next Voldemort, I swear… Sweet Mother of Jesus stop apologizing and fix my nose, or I’ll kick you where it’s really painful – you have no idea how much that actually hurts.

[drlaurensheehan]

You’re not going to look like Voldemort so calm down. I’m trying, I’m trying, just hold still and you have to stop freaking out too! --tell me something, anything to take your mind off of how much it hurts.

[moickingj-blog]

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

Let’s hope you’re right because it sure hurts like hell.. And I’m in need of my nose, ya know? For, like, everything. – Please stop apologizing, Laur. It doesn’t help any of us, it’ll just freak you out even more. Plus, your dad is always right.

[drlaurensheehan]

Well, technically you aren’t in need of your nose for everything, but...nevermind. You know I can’t stop apologizing, when you headbutt someone in the hallway it is very hard to stop apologizing. Now, hold still and let me help you. 

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

It’s okay, it’s – okay. I think you may, dunno, broke it.

[drlaurensheehan]

No, no, no, it can’t be broken. Just-just sit down, okay? We’ll just ice it and I’ll check it out. God, I’m so sorry. I guess my dad was right, I am kind of hard headed.

[haddietanner-deactivated2015101]

[drlaurensheehan]

Oh my God--ow--I ran straight into you. I’m so sorry...here let me get you some ice.

[chaosinthxcalm]

I totally get it – – I fell for the pasta salad once – it looked like pasta salad, smelled like pasta salad – the similarities ended there, little bit like the coffee machine on the third floor, looks like coffee, smells like coffee, sure as hell tastes nothing like no coffee I ever tasted.

[drlaurensheehan]

Is there anything safe here, or is the food bound to make the patients more sick? I’m going to throw this away...and also avoid the  third floor coffee. Thanks for the tip. 

[chaosinthxcalm]

“Cafeteria food? Oh god you must be new – – avoid that place like the plague dude, they had this meatloaf last week that I swear to sweet Jesus looked like something Joey eats – oh Joey’s my puppy, FYI.”

[drlaurensheehan]

Yeah--I figured the rumors were true. I was just, well I was starving. But not enough for whatever this is. And I’ll definitely be avoiding the meatloaf.
