muckefuckSo here I am at work trying to keep a lid on my hanger[*] as I wait for the damn hospital to call me with the time for my procedure tomorrow. I had a real heart-to-heart with one half of the Swedish Colon Mafia and he convinced me to give him another chance. I was wondering if it was even worth the bother, given that the whole point was just to give me some reassurance, but as he put it, "The question I ask is, Is it worth doing at all? And if the answer is yes--which I think it is in this case--then there's no reason to put it off."
But while I'm convinced of his sincerity, there's so much outside of his direct control that I'm anxiously awaiting the next big screwup. I already had to fix one: No one called in my prescription for PEG until I phoned his staff today and complained. It's apparently filled and waiting for me and it only took me a total of 15 minutes on hold with the pharmacy to find that out. And I'd like to get home and start it early (since it took forever to kick in last time) but I'm convinced the moment I step away, the hospital will call.
At least I was able to wrangle the SCM office into using e-mail, albeit badly and sporadically. And I only sent one that was insufferably arch. So far I haven't even used The Voice with anyone today, let alone given it an edge, so I'm fairly pleased with myself, but we'll see if that survives being strung out much longer. According to their own materials they have until 2 pm to get in touch and we're within striking distance of that deadline.
