Could This Be The New Candy?

I was sitting at the doctors office yesterday waiting for my appointment. I was trying to entertain Jocelyn for a good 20-30 minutes when I overheard a conversation (they weren't very quiet about it so I heard with no problems and no intention of listening!)

Let me give you a description first and then I'll give you the dialog. A man walked out of his appointment and had a seat in the waiting room. 10-15 minutes later, his wife and toddler came out of their appointment. She walked up to him and this is their conversation:

WIFE: The doctor gave you a prescription?
HUSBAND: No, I have orders for an xray.
WIFE: How did you get that?
HUSBAND: I asked the doctor for it!
WIFE: That's not fair! I want one.
HUSBAND: Then go ask the doctor for one...



Now, I didn't hear anything else being said but I'm truly shocked at how people want prescriptions and xray orders like it's something to crave and drool over! I was joking with John about this last night when I told him this story but could this be the new candy??? Kidding of course. I understand that people really do NEED these things...but WANT them is a different story. There are just some things I will never understand---THIS would be one of them!!
