I've discovered going to the doctors or hospital isn't so bad when you bring a really good book! Yea, and it only took me, well, nevermind how many years it took me to figure that out. I don't know about you, but I LOVE to read, mostly non fiction but sometimes an occasional smutty, bodice ripping paperback can be fun. But I rarely give myself permission to sit for four or five hours and just...read...guilt free. Most of the time, I have this to do, or that to do, and sitting and reading ends up taking a back seat.
If there's one thing I really detest, it's wasting time. And I've yet to figure out, if time is infinite, why do I seem to experience the occasional shortage? And why does there seem to be so much of it in the hospital emergency room?

Julie, I gave up books at the doctor's office years ago. Instead, I just rent-a-circus-midget. Actually, I rent several..{cheaper in bulk}...they juggle, ride unicycles, get coffee real good, and they can brush off the lint at that troublesome spot at the back of my pants that I can never reach. They also like to read stories, so you don't have to read at all. They'll do it for you. And with all the commotion going on in the waiting room, the nurses or desk help are just DYING to get you the heck outta there. So you get waited on quickly. Whether it's a simple check up...A bicuspid moler....or brain surgery..they get you in and out in twenty minutes. I mean...who's gonna yell at a midget ?? Especially if there's a dozen ?? Haven't they suffered enough, already ?? I was shacked up with a circus midget once. I yelled at him JUST ONCE...he proceeded to fill the bathtub with water....tie cement blocks around his ankles...and dive in face down...The midget search team took 4 hours to find him. Boy !! I'll never do THAT again. Nobody should yell at a midget !! They're too sensitive. The medical profession is aware of this...{they teach it first year}....so what can they do ??...They're stuck with little people hoppin' and boppin' around if the midgets so choose. Nobody bothers them.
Hope this helps in your future visits to the doctor's office.
