The Nawlins Nurse :D

[trystinn]

After getting my "missing" prescription refill filled yesterday after much kerfuffling, I was happy to run into Lynn (my doctor's nurse) who assured me she'd handle it. Given how incredibly she's taken care of me over the years, I had every confidence everything would be fixed post-haste.

Today she called to tell me that I have 5 refills in the system and to apologize again for "that damn pharmacy!" We shared a good laugh, then this conversation ensued:

Lynn: Now, cher, when I saw you yesterday you were knuckling your ear. Are you feeling all right?
Me: I've been congested for a few weeks and my ear started crackling and popping yesterday morning.
Lynn: Damnit, well I figured. You've got yourself another ear infection, don't you? So are you in pain?
Me: Not yet, just pressure and that stupid crackling.
Lynn: I'll have the doctor put you in a script for that. You come pick it up today and if its still bugging you on Monday, you come on in and see us, cher!
Me: Yes, ma'm.
Lynn: You bring us eggs, too, cher.
Me: I'll try, its chick and duckling season here so we're not getting many eggs.
Lynn: Then you bring us pictures!

Gods, I love that woman! :D

Well, hug your neck!

(I love all the little phrases like that one picks up when watching True Blood!)

True Blood is my guilty pleasure - given I'd studied Robert Penn Warren and Katherine Anne Porter, I figure this is the modern incarnation of the Southern Gothic style. :)

I suspect I'd do just about anything a person who called me "cher" told me to do. :)

See? Everyone wants piccy goodness.

You and those damned sinuses. Grrr. Neti pot doesn't help with the ear stuff? It helps me.

Yep, I live to serve with picy posts. Should be a really gorgeous picy post this afternoon - woke up to a glorious sunny day. In the 50s.

There's a surprise in the picy post, too!
