"So look, I’m not going to drag this on much longer..." I did NOT want your pain and anguish and twitchiness to drag out any longer, but I DID want that story to. My goodness...what an adventure. It was all at once so funny (your writing, not your pain) and so sad (society/the "system"). I am certainly glad you have no brain tonsils...or at least not concerning ones.

SHOUTING: I take a calcium-magnesium supplement when I get the jimmy leg, not that you asked!

Oh, I am sorry you are in pain...but you are still darn funny! Take care and feel better soon.

oh dear Alice. They took one look at you and decided that you needed more material for your posts. I'm sure that all of the other patients were merely plants (not the green kind) meant to perk you up while you were waiting.

Meanwhile, I certainly hope you feel better, and this was a one-off. And tell Scott to stop bopping you in the noggin.

I admittedly had to screen ahead to make sure all ended well which of course is ridiculous because how could you write all that if things weren’t? Perhaps dictation to someone else hm... anyway I’m glad you’re ok!!

ALICE. Could you maybe have given us a spoiler alert upfront that everything is OK? My heart is beating out of my chest. (Hope you’re OK for real! We can talk about it on our next visit to Poughkeepsie together.)
