Aristus's JournalWhew! It's been months since someone tried to shake me down for opioids or benzos.
Today, I got four already.
And the day's only half over.
The weekend can't come fast enough...
Please...... *sob* ......think of the tanks......
&feature=shareWish me luck. I'm trying to keep a patient of mine from being deported.
I have visited with this patient for six years now. He's in his late sixties. He ran track and field for his country in the 1976 Olympics ( I won't say which country; a trip to the almanac could reveal his name.) and he's been homeless for about the last ten years. He's not a US citizen, and now the Trump government wants to deport him.
I wrote a letter just now disapproving him for overseas travel based on his medical condition. I'm hoping they will delay or cancel his deportation as a result. Be thinking good thoughts for my patient.
I never stop trying to encourage my patients to quit smoking.
When they sigh and say: "I'll try..." I want to go the full-Yoda on them:
"No! Try not! Do! Or do not! There is no try!"
What I actually do offer a lame: "Well, keep at it..." because doing this: hurts too much, and is bad for the thought-process.
Friday Night Wine Buzz.
Any night owls up?
I'm sorry this is so late. It's what I get for binge-watching The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel...
I saw some drunk redneck armpit-farting at Red Robin today.
I'm not going back there until they get a velvet rope and a 500-lb guy named Tiny for the front entrance. I realize Red Robin isn't exactly Chez Louis au Provence, but still; you're in public, Dude. Save the stupid shit until you get back to whatever tarpaper shack you're currently crashing in.
Friday Night Wine-Buzz. How is everyone tonight?
American food this time. Friday night, and the joint is jumpin'.
Having an amber ale and relaxing after a hard workout and a hot shower.
How is everyone tonight?
