I've got a doctor's appointment on Monday that I just found out about last night. Checked my yahoo mail, and sure enough, there was an email from my dad's secretary, Agnes. She said she'd checked with my mother to see if the appointment time was all right, and my mother said yes

That's basically it. Eh. I'm not overly chuffed, but the fact is that... my mother already knows better and she was just being lazy -_- If I hadn't triggered her memory into it last night, I probably wouldn't have noticed until Saturday or something.

I'm not actually mad at my dad in this situation, because I *DO* need to get check out, and I had told him that. He'd talked to me two weeks about the doctor he wanted me to see, and I was fine with it. He also said that my mother should see the doctor, too. Told him to have Agnes look into available appointments. But yeah.. I think the reason Agnes went to my mother first before me is because she was setting up appointment for BOTH of us. I just keep having to tell my mother to stop telling my dad or Agnes that doing things for me is okay without making sure I don't have a conflict before hand. I mean.. it wouldn't KILL her to tell them "Let me talk to Catherine and make sure she isn't doing anything first and either I'll let you know or she will."

I think she's afraid of giving my dad the message of "Oh, Catherine has a life, and by me telling you that I need to check with HER first, that's me advocating her having one."

Oh I didn't think you were mad at him, nor did I think that you should be mad at him, ya know? It's just, like you said, people being lazy.

I like the observation you made there at the end about your Mom.. though, I don't think that if she tells Agnes not to share the details, that they won't move on beyond here, after all it's the sistership of women we're talking about, no?

dude, sistership of women does not trump agnes's paycheck... know what i'm sayin?

does agnes need to be involved in this process at all? i mean... not to go crazy with the crazy talk, but if there's a way for a certain someone to make her own appts.... maybe that would work out better? :)
