tell you what… take five minutes, and fill a reply with the roles you’ve held. I think it’d be fun to see what comes to mind. (or, if you do it in your journal, put a link here, so I can see it?)

Totally unrelated, cool bunker here.

whee!

the poem tag project has really taken off. If you’ve made a tag, and it’s not mentioned there, let him know, and he’ll link you up. (I’ve been monitoring traffic, and that entry has been getting a boatload of hits.) If you haven’t yet, what are you waiting for? the concept is a hoot.

full report on my doctor trip is in my palm… as soon as I synch it, you’ll get the long story. the abridged version, I waited 4 hours, will be going back to work tomorrow, and scheduled an xray appointment.

ok. I called for my ride to get to my 10:30 appointment at 9:30. I called back at 9:45, 10am, and just now.

This is the downside of calling a cab, and not having a friend available to drive at this hour. I imagine that the clown that got my call is “stacking”, illegally using a modified meter and tracker to take more than one call at a time. the thing they don’t know is that when you call back every 10 minutes or so, dispatch figures these things out, and turns off their meter for a period of 1-3 hours, depending. I’m guessing that I’ve shut of two such drives this morning, and that gives me some satisfaction… however, I need to be at the doctor’s in 15 minutes, and it’s a 10 minute drive.
