one for the team

My boss and her boss are over in the eastern part of the state celebrating attending the wedding of one of those bratty kids that used to come out here for pre-teen parties in the basement. What was I thinking, by the way?

I watched Obama's address last night on healthcare in the US and the things that we might as well get used to. Primary and preventive care are where it's at...A government funded healthcare system that is based on referral to specialists is not a good thing. Too much opportunity to pad the old pocket with perks from bigtime drug and insurance companies.

Most of the doctors that I am friends with want to do no harm, perform well at their jobs and go home to their families at a decent hour just like yours truly. I have worked for many years as a med tech, learning the internal works of the clinical and anatomical laboratories and the horrors involved with spotty coverage from a pathologist who was either not offically on call or crazy as an old Cuban refugee. The primary care docs see patients during the day and hand it over to hospitalists from other countries who came to America to drive expensive cars prolong life way past the point of any sort of quality. Right now, in the bill pile, there are statements from my day job and a few other providers who shall remain nameless. There's also past due rent, an upcoming ginormous bill from TVA and the usual incidentals like stuff to make pasta salad and pimentoless cheese. Oh...and body wash from the dollar general.

Me and some girls are loosely planning a trip to southeastern tennessee to do the Ocoee and Hiwasee thing. The least TVA can do is let us have some fun with the water if we're gonna pay big bucks for it. I'm just sayin'.

Almost friday ya'll. Keep the faith ^j^
