more adventures in the surreal

hearing a peppy muzak jazz version of "Frosty the Snowman" while waiting in a doctor's office to find out whether or not your father will need to have part of his finger amputated goes beyond ironic, into just sick and wrong. and yet that's what i was doing at 10 o'clock this morning

OMFG. I have been waiting for that to be my dad for so many years now (knock wood) that I have come to think it never happens to anybody you know.

Damn.

i know! sometimes when we're working in the shop i get so nervous i have to go in the other room. ched's under orders not to amputate any digits - if he does, i told him i'll break up with him. :)

it grows back??
gah! i am getting him gloves for Xmas so i don't have to look at it.

yeah, i intentionally sat out in the hall so i wouldn't have to see it, and then the male nurse, or whatever he is comes out, sits way too close, and starts telling me all about it! WTF? isn't that a HIPPA violation or something? was he trying to freak me out? pick me up? seriously, wtf?

on top of it all, it was starting to soak through before we even got out the door, so we had to go back to have more gauze put on it. gah.
