So that was annoying in itself, but then I go in to have the surgery, and the receptionist is like, “Yeah, sorry—we’re not going to be able to do that today. You’ll have to reschedule for sometime in April.”
Needless to say, I was PO’d and started shouting obscenities. I guess I’m a total potty mouth in my dreams. So I ask the lady why we can’t do it and she’s like, “I don’t know, your doctor just didn’t want to.”
So I go hunting around the hospital and find him in a room making balloon animals for a bunch of kids. So I ask him what the deal is, and A) Why we’re not doing the surgery, and B) Why he didn’t call and tell me yesterday. And he says he just didn’t feel like it, so I go off again and say I’m going to find a new doctor. Then he says I can’t, or I’ll have to pay for it all myself.
OK, it may not sound like much, but it was really annoying. I mean, I’m not exactly looking forward to the surgery, but I’m so sick of snot, sinus headaches, coughing, and swollen eyelids in the morning (goddamn ethmoid sinuses) that I am ready to do ANYTHING to make it all go away.
Hrmph.

In other news, I’m still really really bored at work. So what does Jennifer do when she’s bored? She plays with Microsoft Paint!
I should do this for a living.

In other other news, I’m looking forward to Christmas—it’s my favorite time of year. I’ve had my radio tuned to the Christmas station since the day after Thanksgiving. I just love it because it’s a time when I get to spend time with my family (which sounds corny, but it’s true). I don’t get to see my grandpa, aunt & uncle, or cousins very often, so it’s always fun to get together on Christmas Eve to have general merriment! :) Not to mention I love watching my little brother and sister on Christmas morning—so much fun!

WOW. That is skill. Seriously, how'd you make those reindeer?
And hey, fiddlesticks is MY expression, back off lady!
Where was the Adam Solomon tag btw?
Yeah, your Paint skills are actually quite impressive. The last two are nothing short of outstanding.
I will agree that seeing family is a very good part of Christmas. I'd say the best part.
Thank you, thank you.
Great bordome allows me to hone my paint skills.
Nice how you describe the dream.
And as for # 8 of the survey: what about a new pic?
I had to do #40 28,009.3816
And the Oregons not being able to drive I feel the same way about Washington. Screw those Californians heading north. There mothers were hamsters and their fathers smelt of elderberry.
Anyways nice paint work.
Alright I am done. Cheers! Happy Holidays!
