I've filled in the names with aliases to protect the innocent, but here it is.
Bossman,
The nurse called this morning and set me up for my procedure on Wednesday 7/27. Since I have the PTO and we don’t have anything on the books, I’m going to take the next day, just for grins. And because, I’ll be honest – I love daytime television. That Judge Judy is a breath of fresh air.
There is training on 7/27 that I’m going to have to either resched or offload to Colleague – I copied you on that e mail to him.
Obviously, I’ll have to do some kind of follow-up after it’s all said and done, but hopefully, they’ll be a little less rigid. When they called this morning, it was basically, “Here’s when you need to be here. Period.”
So, there’s that. Also, for what it’s worth, I finally told my parents – my father’s reaction was basically, “Ok, well it sounds like you have it under control.” Mom’s concern was how it would affect my hair. I also had to convince her I had a good doctor and that we were doing the procedure in a reputable facility. No, Mom, I went to the Carcinoma Pagoda at the mall, and they gave me a coupon for a free eyebrow wax with purchase.
So, hopefully, that’s that.
Thanks!
Patient
Without my sense of humor, where would I be?
