Well were back here in the hospital. Completely given over to BORDOM I am blogging on my palm pilot.
A few paltry observations:
1. In emergency some hidden specter holds all the TV controls, and works tirelessly to keep it on only the most mindless drivel available. At the end of the last soap opera a show came on (don’t ask me what it was now) that promised to be a break from the mind numbing banter featured on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’. The invisible personage quickly relieved us of what could have meant a potentially entertaining TV show. Two swift clicks of her/his invisible remote and PRESTO! – Another soap.
2. Everyone is aggravated. We have been waiting 2 hours many others have been waiting much longer. To keep you hanging on for another hour they send a nurse to tell you it’ll be another 20 minutes.
3. Since we are at a hospital sponsored by a religious order of some description 3 out of 4 of the magazine selections are religious in nature. Since i am in no need of this brand of inspiration I read Popular Science instead. Air powered cars and how to choose a cell phone.
4. The EMERGENCY department needs to be renamed so people’s hopes aren’t prematurely inflated.
Letter from my Dad received today that was definitely worth posting.
