The rushed-seven-minutes thing generally matches my experience. And it's funny because both Big Pharma and commercials say "Talk to your doctor," quite frequently and I generally feel like "When would I have the time?" I'm definitely not Laura Ingalls spilling her guts to Doc Baker or anything, leaving aside for the moment the question of self-diagnosis by commercial.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Happy P-C day!!!
If I'm at the doc for a specific thing, it is usually a fairly quick appointment. But for my annual physical, I get a fair bit of her time. I really like my doc cause she listens and remembers stuff without having to check the file.
And I'm all bummed. My dad was supposed to come here to visit after visiting other family in Florida. First he was supposed to be here from tonight through Sunday. Then he had to change plans to Wed - Fri because he needs to prep for a trip to India. Well, it looks like he caught the flu so he changed his flight and is going home today to try to get better before the India trip.
My house is cleaner than usual and luckily I hadn't put money out on any tickets or anything for the visit. Still, would have been nice to visit.
Happy Birthday, Polter-Cow!
Happy birthday, P-C! Eat cake for me.
Enjoy your trip, ita!
That's a bummer about your dad's visit, Suzi. But ... at least the house is clean?
I was victorious in my performance review. My boss gave me her write up last night, so I knew what it would say (really good, generally), and totally steered the conversation the way I wanted to. Phew.
Went over the the storage area in the library where much of the SA art collection is (I'm inventorying the collection) and spent less than 2 hours there and I am now hot, sweaty, dusty and exhausted.
Was the puppy at the library????? That would be awesome!
Yay good performance review!
annoying co-worker is SO annoying. giant control freak who will not let me have any autonomy in this budget process. Do not meet with anyone without her, do not do any emails, do not take any lead in any part.
I wish I'd found a puppy at the library. . . but a dust puppy would have been the most likely kind.
