Lovely morning. I technically overslept, except I have a doctor's appointment, so it's okay. However, in the interim, we had a technical issue, and it wasn't reported to me, but some of the calls came to me anyway, so I was a bit confused.
And I grabbed the opportunity to both tweet my disgruntlement and to call into customer service of the taxi company. She has access to recordings of the call, and she had already looked up the times I'd ordered a cab, so Tim's first lie will be clearly apparent. I may never hear any more of it, but this is a start.
The doctor wants to insert electrodes into my spine, and a battery pack into my ass.
Before I have a proper freakout, I should find out if I can afford this. He thinks there are no alternatives.
I desperately want alternatives.
Wow. That would be a big step. Kind of like a pacemaker but for decreasing pain?
Okay, I admit that my first thought was "In your ASS?!" which probably isn't helpful. Sorry... Surely it can't actually be as big as the image my mind immediately conjured.
You can test whether it works before you go all the way and get it implanted, right?
ita,
no alternatives? really?
I'm sorry, but I don't believe it.
What kind of treatment is this exactly?
Wow, ita. If it works, though...
You can test whether it works before you go all the way and get it implanted, right?
This would seem in order.
I have just had my world shaken a little bit: We have a primary on Thursday, so I went to look at the ballot to see if I had anything to vote for, and learned that thanks to redistricting this year, my Member of Congress is not who I thought it was! And not who I wanted it to be! I mean, Ed Markey is fine, but I don't know him personally.
What kind of treatment is this exactly?
What kind of doctor is this exactly?
But seriously, if it turns out to be a solution - all the less weird sounding stuff hasn't been as effective as it should, so maybe going off the grid a bit isn't so out there? But I wish you alternatives.
Jesse, my dad knew Markey personally, and he hated him. But that probably doesn't help. He's been the rep for over twenty-five years, though, so maybe he's better now?
Jesse, consider pretending that Biz Markie is your rep instead. Consider him just a friend.
