FRIDAY

I finally went to the doctor today! First time in 5 years. Is that good? And let me tell you, what a nightmare. Since I am a veteran I decided to go to the good old VA. After sitting in the lobby waiting for my appointment for 45 minutes, next to several old men who all had SARS and coughed repeatedly trying to spread it I was called in. The nurse, not attractive, was nice and did her usual questions and then told me to wait for the doctor.
The doctor was WEIRD! And I will add looked like he had been working on his garden this morning and forgot to wash his hands. I couldn't wait for him to touch me and tell me to cough! Told him of a few concerns I had about my heart and how I thought it might skip bears once in awhile. He said no problem he would just run some test and send me home with a monitor that I could bring back Monday. Sounds simple right!
NO. They shaved my chest and hooked me up with this little machine that is attached to 7 panels that get taped to your chest. Wires EVERYWHERE! And oh yeah, by the way, you cant shower for 48 hours! NICE. As you call can guess, as soon as I walked to the next building for x-rays I ripped off this thing, and in the trash it went. Got blood taken and a urine sample. 3 and 1/2 hours later I was on my way. What a great way to start my Friday! And oh yeah. When I came out to my truck this morning someone overnight decided that my truck need Hershey Chocolate Syrup poured all down one side. AWESOME! Tonight I will be spending the night on my roof with night visions goggles and my 45! Check back tomorrow to see how my adventure goes!
