Swingers nursing home

Yesterday was my monthly visit to the nursing home. It's probably the closest thing I have to making house calls. Walking up to the nurses station, I saw their big screen TV. Of course, in a nursing home, the volume is turned up. On TBS was the movie Swingers with Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau. This is one of the best movies EVER! All I heard down the hall was, "Vegas, baby, Vegas!" More quotes here.

I visited some of my patients down the hall and then came back to the nurses station to fill out some paperwork. As I look up, it's the one "quasi" racy part of the movie with Vince Vaughn making out with this hottie. The funny part is that when I looked up from the desk, there are five wheelchairs huddled around the TV, but all the people in the wheelchairs are sleeping! This sight was SO money!

Then, I realized that I was watching a love scene on TV in a nursing home. I had these conflicting emotions -- part of me wanted to bust out laughing, and the other part was getting more and more nauseated. I quickly finished my rounds before my emotions overcame me.
