HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh, my freakin gawd, Tom; where to start with how entertaining and UPROARIOUS this post is! (Sure, to ME it's uproarious. Meanwhile, you're there at home, with your handful of prunes and warm prune juice chaser, trying to get a bowling ball through a straw. Quite the vivid image, that!!
I also LOVE your idea that, for the sake of "oneness," the doctors and operating staff should be conducting each operation in the nude except for their red sock with the rubber dots on the bottle. Certainly seems like a fair-trade arrangement to ME!!
I liked that you queried the doctor about whether or not he was well-rested and if he and his wife had argued in the previous twenty-four hours. You are one astute man, I tell you! Nobody's fool; that's for sure.
Well, I appreciate that you took the time and effort to share what's been happening with you. I have definitely missed you, and now I'm sending you all kinds of love and good-healing vibes and karma.
Please take good care of yourself - and keep that hilarious sense of humor intact.

Oh Rachelle,
I'm so glad you enjoyed this offering. I've been putting off writing for a bit, not wanting to be in a drug induced stupor when I sat at the computer. Plus, just the act of sitting is taking a bit of an effort.
Have you ever noticed that certain professions lend themselves to exerting power over other people? Doctors, airline pilots, movie ticket takers? There is a sense of power that they have, and I think a certain satisfaction of making their clients wait without answers. The whole nude/skimpy gown issue would probably pretty much resolve itself if the doctors and nurses had to dress likewise. It would probably only be distracting for a few minutes, and would certainly give the patients some entertainment while they wait to get operated on. I wonder if there are any hospitals in the nudist colonies, and if so, if the quality of work is the same? I should probably do some research on that. As always, it's lovely to hear from you gal.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

Oh my goodness, Tom!
Been there - done that = twice!
Your narrative certainly resonated with me!
And I have to admit, that I did smile at a number of places that you so deftly described!
Just remember, when attempting to rise out of a sitting position: "Nose to Toes." You'll thank me!
Sending you positivity and healing strength!
Thank you for sharing!
fondly,
diane

Hello Diane,
it's so nice to hear from you my friend. I seem to recall you mentioning knee surgery in the past. It sure is fun isn't it? The other day I was wondering what I'd been thinking when I went through with it, but then I took some pain pills and didn't give it any more thought, at least until I had to sit on the john. I wish the pharmaceutical industry would come up with something that worked without all the side effects that seem to plague every medicine. It's so good to hear from you gal. Thanks again.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

Hello Marilyn,
thanks so much for the delightful review gal. If I'd had any sense of poetry I might have tried a Dr. Suess rendition, but my mind isn't all that clear yet, and it was challenging enough just to write this little bit. Have a blessed evening gal.
Tom
