Teppy, good luck with your appointment.

I'm actually nervous about it.

I hate going to the doctor. I'm always certain I'm just going to hear everything I'm doing wrong.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I generally like going to the doctor. Well-paid professionals are paying attention to me!

And are unlikely to do anything you could get arrested for.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I hate going to the doctor. I'm always certain I'm just going to hear everything I'm doing wrong.

Yeah, I'm expecting to hear I'm being a stupid drama queen who's overreacting to everything and also a drug seeker and that the solution to my problem is to lose weight.

And away I go. I hope my post-appointment report is vastly different than my fears.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hec! Do you happen to have any family in St. Petersburg, FL? I'm here for a library conference and one of the local librarians shares your last name. Which I realize is not a lot to go on, but I know you have (or used to have?) Florida connections, so I figured I'd ask.

No immediate family there, but all Smays are related so they're some kind of distant cousin. We all descend from a common ancestor. My Dad's done all the geneological research back to 14th century in Rottweill, Germany.

Have fun in Florida!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My GD numbers are high today for the first time since I started on the meds, which is making me anxious. I hate this.

My worries were for naught. Awesome doctor wants me to try a low-dose SSRI again, at least for a while, with Ativan for emergencies and plane trips.

Good news, Steph. I hope this makes your brain take it easier on you.

That's good, Teppy. I hope they both help and quickly.
