I'm moving to germany
At least the health care doesn't suck BALLS over in the duestchland. I swear. Today I realized why Americans hate the health care system in this country. I'm not talking about plans, prices, drugs -recreational or legal- but today I had to go through 6, yes SIX dermatologists to book an appointment. all conversations went like this:
"Hi. I have insurance. Blue Cross PPO. Yes, I'll hold. Holding. Blue Cross, Yes. I'd like to book a appointment with Dr. Rosen.
And I swear to you, here were the responses. I'll never forget them.
We have an opening Dec 23rd.
I can get you in the middle of January.
Our earliest available appointment is January 25th.
We're not accepting new patients until June.
Okay fuckers: What if I have some skin tumor or infection? I lump I can't identify? What if, what if, it's God forbid C-A-N-C- I don't even wanna WRITE the rest, what if it's that?!?! You still gonna push it off?
Thank god it's just a rash. And no, I won't tell you where. But it's not there, praise be the Lord.
In other news, my throat really hurts. If it's strep I am so screwed. Stay mental, it's all in your head, I keep telling myself. What else. Oh, what do you make of this? I just got a random text message. The perks of being first in everyones phone directory.

Poetry at its finest. Wierd this is, I think I know who sent it to me. And I'm also pretty sure she was an employee of mine for a while. So now what?

Make like a CHAIr and put a smile on.
It's a deramtologist thing. My cousin had a bizarre break-out this summer and when she tried booking a derm. appt., they couldn't see her for like three months. Finally, one doctor told her to come and just sit around waiting for him to have a moment. What is it with Americans and their skin that it's more difficult to make a derm. appointment than it is to make one with a doctor?
Anyway, she was just allergic to the air at the camp she worked at. (Real diagnosis.)
You know thats why you always received phone calls from me. Because you ARE the first in my phone list. Also cuz you rock my socks. I hope you feel better, that your holidays are merry :) and that next year...we become better friends.
Cheers!
I found one! He gave me ointment. Aaron loves ointment.
