Similar to last time, before we could fly overseas we had to visit the hospital. Ronnie and I started our morning off strong with some labs and scans before making our way to the infusion room. A whole blood transfusion for Ron and a platelet transfusion for myself. With a few hours left to kill I took out my phone and started watching Vine compilations on YouTube. Much like sleep, humor cures cancer. The other day Maxx sent me a link to a vine compilation called "Vines that cured my cancer" and since then I have found an abundance of golden humor. Watching these clips had me inspired to do another collab with my friend Luke Cutforth. It had been forever since I have done a video with him, and quite frankly I missed all of our stupid fun. I sent him a text to see if he wanted to remake some classic vines for a future video and then continued spiraling down the YouTube rabbit hole.
"Oh? Care to share what's so funny?" Ron asked.
"Try not to laugh challenge video. I failed."
"Miserably. You have a cute laugh though hun."
"I do not."
"Yes, you do. It's cute. I love your laugh."
"I love you."
"And here we find the wild Patty and Ronnie" Ben interrupted, walking into the room. "Two lovebirds in their natural habitat. Brought you both Tango Ice Blasts, as requested."
"You're the absolute best Benj!" I exclaimed. "Thank you!"
"Of course, mate. Love you both. How much longer? Hoping to beat rush hour."
"A little under an hour for me," Ron answered. "Patty should be finished with his infusion soon. Platelets take less time than whole blood cells."
"He's such a diva," I teased. "Even more than you Ben. Needs the whole damn cell. So damn needy."
A nurse helped unhook me from the IV pole and I quickly made my escape to the bathroom, giving my slushie to Ronnie for safe keeping. Thankfully, I had returned to a still fairly full cup. Ben and Ronnie were in the middle of discussing something. I was not quite sure on the topic, as I was tuning the outside world out and annoying my friend Luke, who had finally gotten back to me.
Luke: Does this include you in a dress? And wig?
Me: I said remaking vines... not A Song About A Girl.
Luke: We could do a part 2 called A Song About A Boy. Vine remakes for your channel, Song About A Boy for my channel.
Me: Do I have to wear a dress again?
Luke: Not a dress, but would you wear a wig? I'll wear the dress this time.
Me: I can do a wig. Wigs are okay. Bought one for tour. Check out this sexy beast.
Luke: omg you're Snape again. LOVE IT. But I'm getting a blonde pop punk swoop wig for you.
Me: Fucking hell...
"Earth to Patty," Ben firmly stated, waving his hand in front of my face.
"Huh?"
"What's up in the head of Patty Walters," Ron asked. "We mentioned Pokemon and you still ignored us. Something is up."
"Oh I was just talking to Luke about a collab idea. He wants to do a part 2 to Song About A Girl. So um yeah, that's going to be an interesting video to film when we come back. What about Pokemon?"
"I was telling Ben how we got Let's Go, Eevee to try out on this tour instead of Let's Go, Pikachu."
"Oh yeah. Was a strong debate, but we settled on Eevee. Super stoked, especially since this one is multiplayer and we can play co-op."
