It was a 3 Day Weekend, Wadda Ya Want?

I'm listening to iTunes on my computer. It's randomly picking songs while I review charts on today's victims (uh, I mean patients).

It's been 20 years, maybe more, since I last saw the Rocky Horror Picture Show (yes, folks, in my younger days I was a Feature Creature). Anyway, at some point the computer picked the movie soundtrack, and began playing it.

And it dug up my old memories. So, without thinking, I began yelling out the old responses, just like I did at the movie.

I didn't even realize what I was doing until I looked up to see my staff were all standing in my office doorway, trying to figure out if they should call a neurologist, or psychiatrist, or Dr. Kevorkian.

Leave me alone. It was a 3 day weekend, and I need another Diet Coke.

  1. How many years have you been practicing to make you so grumpy about patients, thus giving us excellent stories?

  6. Maybe I was wrong about you being one of the few normal neurologists out there.

    If I am wrong and you're crazy, at least you're "good crazy" and freakin' hilarious!

  9. Way too many.

    Most Saturday nights during my undergraduate years.

    I don't even know if they even show it at midnight movies anymore.

  11. You mean there was something besides the midnight RHPS on Saturdays????

  12. I love RHPS!! We used to go all the time to the midnight live shows which closed about 3 yrs ago...Then last summer the local small art theater brought them back and its only $3...awesome! None of the docs i work for would ever probably admit to seeing it or ever be caught singing it or shouting out the cues...
    Grumpy, you made my day!!

  13. I couldn't do it anymore. I'm afraid of being recognized by a patient, and having my picture in the local paper, in drag and make-up.
