If you go for a ct scan tell him that it's called a "cat scan" because it's run by cats. The reason you have to wait so long is because the hospital staff are collecting the cats to run the machine. It amused my kid when he had a similar accident at least. He was also amazed at being able to see his full eyeballs and brain thanks to the tech who let him look at the images when he was done.
Just missed getting smooshed by a semi this morning. I was waiting out a red light at an intersection when the first semi made the turn. I thought I had left enough room, but the semi was still taking a very wide line (almost a u-turn at that intersection). Stopped inches from crunching the side of my car. I backed up, and so did the pickup behind me. When there was enough room, I was able to dart through the yellow light into the Rite-Aid parking lot across the street.
The pickup truck wasn't so lucky. He got stuck at the red light, and the second semi, a partner of the first, took his turn. Again with a wide line, and in spite of the pickup driver leaning on his horn, did NOT stop. Well, not until he'd wedged the front drivers side corner of the pickup under his trailer.
If I hadn't dashed through the intersection with the yellow, I'd have been where the pickup was, and my little Suziki Aerio would likely have been totaled.

I need to have a very stern 'discussion' with an employee ... She's been curiously absent at opportune moments, and I don't want to have to pull her out of the office in front of people, because that raises automatic questions, and I don't want her to feel attacked or embarrassed.
My daughter has a dance recital today. Like in 20 minutes, including travel time.
Guess who never made sure the video camera is charged?

It's all held outside (no auditorium at their school), so no outlets for me to use there. But a few minutes of being plugged in before we left gave it enough of a charge that I got to record three of her numbers and used my phone for a quick clip of her taking a bow.
I was thinking something else so I'm glad you clarified for us.
Did the "Crop Duster" make you "Prairie Dog?"
I get that too from time to time. Does it seem like it's coming from the back of your head near where your neck and skull join?
My doctor told me that mine wasn't a problem. It was just because I'm getting old.
It's your internal pedometer.
It's closer to my ear. Almost like when you clear the pressure in your ears, but there's no pressure. Just a little click.I get that too from time to time. Does it seem like it's coming from the back of your head near where your neck and skull join?

Rocks in your head.
@stienman, come over here, sweetie. We need to have a discussion.
My wife found a piece of paper with a woman's name and a phone number in my medicine bag that I kept in my briefcase when we went on our vacation to Colorado. I had to get on a flight a few days earlier from the rest of my family due to work. So now she's jumping to conclusions.
I don't expect any of you folks to know me well enough to believe that while I can't provide an explanation (I honestly have no idea how it got there other than something so trivial I don't remember any more) it could still easily be an innocent one. But I do expect my wife of all people to know me well enough.

This all ties in the video game thing we mentioned before, it's massive insecurity issues.
Oh I get it.
I'm choosing not to sweat it. This is her internal battle that she started with herself. I'll be there for her when she's picked a side.
Oh brother.

"WHO THE HELL IS THIS ZELDA YOU'VE BEEN TALKING TO?"
It does in Belgium! Huzzah!Just what the hell are people thinking when they believe "I'd rather get fired so I can collect unemployment than make an effort at work," is a viable strategy? Don't they realize it doesn't work that way?
(also, if you're in a low paying job, chances are about even that you'll be making more on unemployment than from work for the first 6 months. Rinse and repeat every few months for maximum effect!)
You mean you can be a complete and total screw-up, with the writeups to prove it, and you can still draw benefits?
We had a different guy start here with this strategy in mind. Dumbass even said so. The manager made it clear that he wasn't going to, and with the stack of writeups he'd accumulate, the state would laugh at him when he tried to file a claim.
He quit the next day.
