Spent a huge chunk of today in waiting rooms in between being poked and prodded.\u00a0 End result – the vampires have their million pints of blood and I have a new family doctor. Start the parade. He seems nice enough and since he was willing to take me on I think I’m gonna keep him. Considering how hard it appears to get a family doctor in this town that seems to be a good idea at this point.<\/p>\n
Since returning home I’ve spent the bulk of my afternoon and early evening writing papers.\u00a0 Upside: <\/strong><\/em>I’ve finished one of two papers due this weekend. Downside: <\/strong><\/em>It’s the one due on Saturday; not the one due Friday. I’ve still got a bit more to do before I’m going to consider this paper in the bag and move on to the next one.\u00a0 Hopefully after an hour on the treadmill I’ll be ready to head back to it and finish it off.\u00a0 Can’t afford to do much more procrastination at this point.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n All this work in the home office reminds me that I have a really crappy office chair since Loxley killed the last one. I have never found a suitable replacement – never having been all that fond of the original chair – and so I use a folding card table chair in the office.\u00a0 It’s uncomfortable as all get out. The plan was to keep a horrible chair in the office so I’d have to avoid spending all day working. It forces me to get up and take breaks. Of course since I’m always waiting until the last minute to actually sit down and write the plan doesn’t usually play out as formulated.\u00a0 Instead, I’m working my way to needing a good, long soak in the jacuzzi tub to recover from my paper writing. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n And since I’m supposed to be going out to dinner with R&R Friday evening I’ll likely be in similar shape tomorrow night after finishing the paper for my MilPsych class. That’s it then. I’m off to take a short break to exercise then back to the salt mines to work on the second paper.\u00a0 If I can complete 50% of it tonight, I should be in great shape to have it submitted before I toddle off to dinner with R&R Friday evening.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Hmmm. I wonder if I can convince them to come to karaoke after dinner?\u00a0 It has been a while since they’ve come out to sing… Spent a huge chunk of today in waiting rooms in between being poked and prodded.\u00a0 End result – the vampires have their million pints of blood and I have a new family doctor.
