You will have to pardon my bad pun because I've seriously had a rough day.
My AP KICKED ME OUT OF SCHOOL!
I had gotten an appointment with the doctor for June 6 (still would have to leave school early, but it's after Annie and my assembly and a whole bunch of other stuff), but apparently that was not good enough - because SHE called them and made them give me an appointment immediately (they had originally offered me a mid-day appointment that I didn't take because I would have had to take the whole day off - and miss rehearsal and tech set up, which I CAN'T). They fit me in and she threw me out of the building! I literally had gone in to ask for photocopies. . .I knew we couldn't get copies usually, but the other AP had asked for them - and I didn't realize the penalty was banishment!
So anyway, I'm not faking because after a whole bunch of tests and x-rays and an MRI (which I have to go back for), here is what they found:
I have a herniated disk. . .and a pinched nerve. . .and arthritis in my neck. . .and 3 muscles in spasm. . .and a floating patella. . .and arthritis in my knee. . .AND cartilage damage!
Never rains, but it pours. . .damn, it's time to build an ark!
There goes the money I had earmarked to get Tivo. It sucks to be a tech geek without any money.
