words from dad

dad: i told him that's white gown syndrome
me: what's that?
dad: when you are surrounded by doctors so you have high blood pressure
me: white coat syndrome?
dad: yeah
me: did you make that up?
dad: what, you've never heard of it? i should go patent it

The other day, I found this note I jotted. I think one of the best parts of our trip was probably the confirmation of my dad's funny ways all over the world. He has a friend whose wife and son are both doctors and I guess this friend is constantly stressed out by different diseases he hears about and trying to be healthy. My dad, on the other hand, was in awe of all the crazy mushrooms we saw by the mountainside.
