I personally play the odds and avoid hospitals because they seem to be a magnet for death and disease.
"Better to swim with sharks or dance barefoot in rattlesnake territory than go to an ER". That's not only my motto but statistically sound advice.

Okay, Quick Update...
You guys got me thinking... (I know very hard to do. ;) )...
The ex-wife and I arrive... very few cars in parking lot... (we gear up)... we enter the back way, I see five or six receptionists... it's not like a tomb, but more like a ghost town... seemingly devoid of patients... I sign waiver forms... (I used "Jimmmi Hendrix", I always use fictitious or dead people's names when signing anything the last 20 years... saved me $60K+ in USD back in '00, with a squiggly "X"" but that's another story.)
As always, the receptionist never notices and she sez, "I'll date it". It was Friday the13th! (Now let it be known I revel in that shite.), so we make our way to the elevators out of sight...
We each don our appropriate gear... (portable spray anti-bacterial stuff and wipes of the same ilk)... like a cigar sized tubes & pocket tissue packs elevator buttons... we were like pros, using the former to hit elevator walls and the latter to hit elevator buttons.
Door levers were a breeze. It reminded me of and I thought of old "Strike Back's" (I swear I imagined yelling "CLEAR!" at every door or corner!)... but didn't.
The doc's and their PA tell me were finishing the RIGHT side again, but painfully this time! (The PA notices quickly notices my signature this time... I think games up!... WAIT!... He nods and gives me a quick wink! ;)
They treated me like royalty after that... pumping me so full of Xanax and they ask me can I still talk? Why? (I'll find out 30 minutes later.)
I hear in the background how all their patients opted out, or rescheduled because it was Friday the13th... 30 minutes later...
Doctor's Frankenstein hit me with electrodes! They zap me repeatedly... "can you feel that? YES! .... how about that? NO! (Picture a T.E.N.S. Unit set on high if you've felt them before.)
30 minutes later the PA has me in a wheelchair rolling me out, he does all the touching shite, so the ex and I are totally safe.
(I still am a bit groggy at this point... chin down and stuff.) Only one other patient ever seen. He asked us the date.
He helps me in the passenger side of the car were I notice he's been hiding a small bag. Hmm...
He says, "For sleepy time if you need any this weekend... Jimmy!" and smiles. :)
(The way home... Samples... full of small boxes, blister packs and the like. I recognized them all!) ;)
I have 2 more procedures for the LEFT side, 1 wimpy like before and 1 electrifying like yesterday. All ore-approved about 2 weeks apart.
Can't Wait! ;)
I truly hope this other stuff burns out by then.

It is... yesterday was a fluke* for me. ;)

*Btw... that's also a very tasty fish.

You escaped every virus *but*... the ones that have been on that wheelchair long enough to become sentient. Your backside is now more nearly as infected than as Idol's...
Congrats on another successful round. You got this, Jimmy!
I got irritated with work again and took another 6 days off. :cool:

You are so... BAD! ;) ...don't forget they wiped it down with that anti-bacterial juju ex saw to that.. remember I was out of it.:blink:

You'll get paid I here. ;)

Whenever you're referring to these sorts of "identity" issues, it's helpful to be more specific, so one can tailor one's laughter appropriately.

Bump
Don't you just hate it when I'm right.

One only hopes. They tend to be hard to kill though.
