Aimee--Know what?

I just got an e-mail from someone informing me that my answer to question #60 in the post below is incorrect, so, because he insists that he has one, there apparently is indeed someone out there who has a crush on me. Isn't that just the sweetest? LOL. And because I mentioned my dream of being a writer in question #13, he suggested a "penname" and though I already have one, I rather liked it! So thanks for making me smile not once but twice!

Have I ever mentioned that there are some people with whom I work that I'd really like to inflict with bodily harm? No? Well, there are. I was checking the messages this morning (of which there were entirely too many) and already saved from last Tuesday was a message from Dr. Cox asking me to please call her office, she was needing to talk to me and she can't reach me at home because she doesn't have that number in my file. Seeing as it was saved but never actually delivered I didn't get to call her back until today. That agitates me, but since I know exactly who did it, we'll be talking about it later.

Because my nurse canceled on me last Tuesday, I have to have my infusion tonight and I'm really not looking forward to it. I hate how the premed's make me feel and I'm probably going to miss "CSI: Miami", but that's better than "House", which I would've missed last week if she hadn't canceled, so I'll quit complaining now.

In other news, I'm currently crossing my fingers (and toes) that my checking account plays nice with me until after my check clears tomorrow or else that'll really (really) suck. You see, I had to have this check postmarked by Saturday in order to avoid late fees and blah, blah, blah, and if the US Postal Service is running anything like normal, it won't be a problem, but with my luck, this'll be the one time the mail is running super-speedy. Oh well, nothing I can do about it so there's no sense giving myself a tension headache worrying over it.

And yet another meme (I'm so annoying with these things--heh), this one via e-mail from Angie...

23. Have you ever thought of asking your priest to come to Christmas dinner to perform an exorcism on a family member? Not literally, perhaps figuratively. LOL.

24. Favorite bottle of wine (or anything) you choose to drink during the holidays due to it helps tolerate certain family members? I don't like wine. Ick. It's rum and eggnog for me!

25. Have you ever went door to door singing Christmas Carols? Yes, but it's been a long time.

And that's it really. I'm out of here in 45 for my rendezvous with Nicole (she'd be my nurse). I hope you're all having a positively pleasant Monday.
