She's only five weeks late but I haven't had a date for ever...

I am hugely entertained by going to the doctor. I made an appointment and managed to get in to see the doctor in under a week. This never happens as she's a popular lady. When I made the appointment I was told to phone about half an hour before I was due to see the doctor to see if she was running on time. So I did. The receptionist was absolutely hilarious. 'No, SHE isn't on TIME. SHE'S running about 45 minutes LATE.' I get the impression that her day is just one long session of telling people that their appointments are pointless and watching irritated people who failed to phone in sigh in the waiting room.

Update: Two hours after said appointment I saw the doctor. And in a couple of weeks I'll have to do it all over again. 'm all for trading this body in for a new one.

My doctor no longer takes appointments. Instead you arrive, sit in the waiting room for an hour, catch an illness from the other people waiting, and then proceed to see the doctor. The whole process saves you time developing your own ailments.

Sometimes I feel like a cog in a machine.

While I was waiting a possible Swine Flu come in. She was masked, the staff were masked, and sat there and breathed in and out.

You're a very nice cog, Dan, don't forget that
