i am currently w/out health insurance. but i had to do some pre-grad school check up stuff. so my dad told me to go to a chinatown doctor, since it would be cheaper. which it was. but for good reason.
(examining my hurt foot): doctor: just a muscle strain. rest and put it in hot water. me: o, ok, cool. dr: does tylenol work for you? me: hmm? o, i should take tylenol? dr: does it work for you? me: umm.. i haven't tried it, but i will. dr: but is it enough? me: uhh... i'll try it and see. dr: you don't need... anything else? me: i don't understand. dr: anything... stronger? me: o... uhh... no ... no, i'm good...
(asking for a physical): me: i also need a physical. dr: what? me: you know, a physical exam. like checking my blood pressure and height and stuff. dr: ah, yes, yes. ok. stand here. (stands me against a door w/ sharpie markered lines for height) dr: 5'5" (scribbles down note on what looks like scrap paper) me: umm... i have my shoes on. dr: what? me: my shoes. i have my shoes on. i'm 5'3". dr: ahh. shoes. ok. (crosses out and changes his notes) me: ... (pulls out ancient looking bathroom scale from under his desk w/ his foot) dr: step on. me: ... dr: its ok, its ok me: but... dr: yes? me: nevermind.
me (driving around campus in the office golf cart): la la la little boy (hears the cart coming, looks up, suprised, then confused. pauses for a second to think. light bulb goes on. comprehension spreads over his face. he smiles and waves): hi mr. mailman!
...and now for the weekend forecast. it's a long three day one and
we're in luck! only partly cloudy all the way through! ~announced sincerely and happily by a seattle radio dj
on the plus side, bad weather made for great espresso and delicious chowder.
hey, wanna play a game? you probably know this game. its fun. its called the "guess who went snowboarding and did a bunch of awesome jumps and didn't fall, except just once, which didn't count though cuz it was only on the the first time, and first times are freebies and everyone knows that, so its still super rad" game:
