Spent all day at the doctor yesterday

[conuly]

Because of waiting, not because of something wrong. Somehow, I ended up offering to write a children's booklist for my mother's neurologist.

Doesn't spending all day waiting count as "something wrong"?

[conuly]

Interesting question. Given that they let my mother delay them by talk-talk-talking, I'm gonna go with "no".

How did you manage to volunteer for that?

[conuly]

Well, the doctor has a six and a four year old.
