You know it's serious when your doctor--not a nurse or a receptionist--calls you

banana daquiris with salted rims. There. Salt AND potassium.

Or something like. I hope you're salty enough soon. :D

I like your ideas and wish to subscribe to your newsletter! However, it'll hafta be virginal so as not to conflict with all the other medical advice and warnings I've gotten.

In order to cure the salt thing, I plan to eat more popcorn. And chips. And fries. And packaged food. And wash it all down with Powerade.

Jeez, following doctor's orders is gonna be hard work. Hard, delicious work. ;)

I recall my friend's brother, Terry, being told by his doctor to pig-out on junk food. He had some kind of wasting disease and needed the calories.

I am very sorry to hear that you have been instructed to eat broccoli.

I'm not sorry about the broccoli. Well, except for that whole gas thing that I could do without. But I like broccoli, and dig that it's got vitamins and nutrients that my body needs and quite possibly craves.

I'm just happy that he didn't recommend mushrooms. XP Or worse, for us North Americans, tomatoes. Now, that would suck. (It'd also suck for me regardless of the ban--I'm not a fan of the tomato.)

Hey, did you go to Hollywood Upstairs Medical College too?

[xinit]

Well, assuming you mean "go to" as in "got drunk, slept in and missed class but graduated anyhow" then, yes.
