in the waiting room.

at the docs...as usual, I'm on time, but the doctor is running slow. A 10:40 and its now 11:12 am, with about 9 people ahead of me.

Salon for the palm sucks. All Teasers for premium content. Bah. I deleted it from my avantgo channel list and now am looking for a better online magazine to palm-synch. Lots of good stuff at plinkit & my yahoo. I just added the sun-sentinel, we'll see how that goes.

[update from home- 12:54pm]

Well, I'm home for another week, the doc want's to be sure I'm mending well. A good start would be not having me sit in the waiting room for over an hour!

This is part of the practice code of Doctors the the world over, keep them waiting and charge the earth for a 5 minute consultation.

Gospel muzak?

That reminds me of a very ironic TV commercial from a few years ago. It was for Senakot (?) laxative and showed middle class white people after taking their Senakot dancing around the tennis court and golf course while James Brown's I Feel Good played in the background.

Constipated white people and the Godfather of Soul. I don't know, it just seemed like an odd juxtaposition.

hmm... well, strangely appropriate irony for a commercial, though!

It irritates me to no end why a doctor thinks their time is more valuable than mine. Grrrr.

Get better!

supply and demand, I guess... if I want the treatment, I have to wait. I have half a mind to arrive a half-hour late, but somehow murphy would get me.
