I swear I’ll find something else to talk about besides work (at least one of these days), but this one was so blatant that I couldn’t *not* share it.<\/p>\n
I was going to make a connection between the miracle of the loaves and fishes, but considering the nature of the miracle I think it’s far more of a “the lamp burned for eight days with oil only for one” type miracle so I’m giving credit for this one to the Jews rather than Jesus.<\/p>\n
I’ve never really had a good head for numbers so I might, just might, be wrong on this one. Y’all check my math for me.<\/p>\n
There are 365 days in a year.
\nThere are two years between 12\/8\/08 and 12\/8\/10. That would be 730 days right?<\/p>\n
Add…hmm… lessee…. 23 days left in December, 31 days in January, 27 in February, 31 in March, and 12 so far in April……
\nAdd another 124 days.<\/p>\n
So 730 plus 124 is…. 854 days. I think I did the math correctly there.<\/p>\n
So can someone explain to me how, when I prescribed two months worth of thyroid medication (that’s 120 pills) for a dog in December of 2008, the owner can look at me with a straight face and tell me that they’ve been giving the medication as directed<\/em> and they’re only just running out now?<\/p>\n It’s gotta be a miracle, right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I swear I’ll find something else to talk about besides work (at least one of these days), but this one was so blatant that I couldn’t *not* share it.
