If I liked the doctor well enough, I probably wouldn't leave, because it's hard to find a new one, but I sure would talk about it, and talk about the office practices that drive you batty, too. I've done that with our pediatricians more than once, and to their credit, they've been open to listening, and the problems usually seem to get addressed.
I like the doctor. I like her bedside manner. The fact that I left without a script on Friday is partially her fault, partially mine. The fact that I called the office at 4 o'clock to get the script called in and was pretty much told "it ain't going to happen" is unacceptable. As is the lack of weekend on-call service. I'm going to discuss this with her. DH thinks that it would be difficult to find another practice that doesn't have issues, too, so unless we can get a sterling recommendation from one of our friends, it's probably going to be useless to switch practices.
And the rash is starting to break out on my back, which is going to suck. Feh.
"Fire" by the Ohio Players was apparently the #1 song the day I was born. I've never even heard of it.
I think you've probably heard it. Burger King used it in an ad for flame broiling. "Fiiiiiiiire. Bawmp mmm bawmp Fiiiiiiire."
"Cracklin' Rosie" by Neil Diamond was #1 the day I was born. Oh, how apt!
Cash, we must be almost the same time! I dodged that bullet in favor of the Jackson 5.
He's so fine
for me

Blue Velvet
which I can't wait to tell him
Oh, dear heavens, I'm on the phone with my mother, and she is telling me about "Feature Films for Families" - some video(s) she was given that include not only harmless movies, but a "Parents' Discussion Guide" for each one. Not that this is a bad thing, but why, oh why is she reading the questions to me, AFTER my observation that the questions all sound like the ones that used to come with the stories in my elementary school reading books?
I think you should give her random answers like "42", "pomogranete , " the state of the universe" and "blue"

I must confess that these people caught me on the phone last month when I was really out of it, and I bought two children's movies. I haven't opened them yet, and I keep thinking of things I could have spent the $30 on.
I am pleasantly tipsy. And silly.
Number one on the day I was born was "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye. A few days later, and it would have been "Crimson and Clover." (waves at -t)
Apparently my number one is Kiss and Say Goodbye. I know it not, which doesn't surprise me at all.
Well, it sure sounded like the movie was wholesome and enjoyable - no quarrel with folks wanting to watch them, and if thoroughly enjoyed, talk about about them. The real boggle is Mom reading me those questions, and continue reading them after I gave some hints - like saying "How terribly earnest," and "Sounds like the kind of questions they had after stories in my third grade reader".
On a happier note, I finally got to the post office to send her the moccasins I made her for christmas, she got them, and she is wearing them.
Okay, I know I've spent the better part of the last three days lying down, but seriously, is this how weak my muscles are? My back's getting sore from standing up for five minutes here!
