There are so many things wrong with the world today.
- I spent my entire lunch break trying to find a signal on my cell phone so I could make a long distance call to ask the bank why we have never, in 15 months, ever gotten a mortgage statement despite making payments via automatic deduction like clockwork. I did not get to eat. This diet is really working!
- Today there were two emails from Netflix. One was telling me that the movie I returned last Monday was received and I will get the next one on my list next TUESDAY!?! The other said that the movie Dan returned yesterday will be replaced TOMORROW!! What did I do to offend you, Netflix? I have done nothing but love you. I have turned many many friends your way with my gushing and bragging. Why, Netflix, why??
- Not only did that bitch Katie Holmes steal my name in Dawson's Creek, but now she DARES to carry the spawn of that freak before I get pregnant?! Oh, but she'll get hers....Wait until she finds out about the Scientology philosophy on childbirth: Completely without pain reduction medication and, GET THIS, silent! Yeah, right! As you all know, I've never given birth, but I know enough to know it hurts. A lot. How are you supposed to get through that without making a little noise?
- I have cramps.
- What's with my students? Did all the parents conspire to withhold their meds today? Just CALM DOWN!! And BE QUIET!! For God's sake! The bookcase is NOT a jungle gym!
- While my class was playing monkeys in the jungle, I had to excuse myself for a phone call. From the hospital where I will be getting my laparoscopy in five weeks. I'm not sure why, but I thought it would be at the clinic. I guess I thought of a laparoscopy was the "down there" version of getting your wisdom teeth out. Not fun, inconvenient, but relatively risk free. Hmm..guess not. When I had my wisdom teeth out no one asked me questions that had words like "advanced directive" and "next of kin" and "religious preference" in them. The last time I was in that particular hospital was at my grandma's deathbed ten years ago.
God damn girl... what a week. Hoping you have the long weekend to recoup.
Perhaps they were asking you so many questions at the hospital because you are having general anesthesia? Just a thought.
Grrrr... Tom Cruise... grrr Katie Holmes and her virgin pregnancy. They will probably have to gag her to keep her quiet. Scientologists are nutters.
