Friday morning, 12: 38 a.m.

This message, left on the on-call emergency voicemail, woke me up:


"Dr. Grumpy, you can cancel all my appointments. I'm very hurt. This is the 2nd year that your lousy practice hasn't sent me a birthday card, like my dentist does. I think you're an asshole. Goodbye!"

    All the lonely people, where do they all come from?

    I still get one from the place where I bought a new car...10 years ago and 1,000 miles from here. You need to step up your game.

    What are the odds that she was drinking and won't remember this the next morning?

    I think you got lucky Dr. Grumpy. This person sounds like a high maintenance kind of patient. Somehow I don't think you will miss them. Next!

    I still get one from the financial adviser I fired 5 years ago.

    Come to think of it, you didn't send me a card for my birthday yesterday, either!!!

    Hallmark is definitely becoming creative with its viral marketing.

    Next she'll expect you to washer windows once a month.

    And you all continue to think that my theory of Chinese air pollution wafting across the Pacific causing rampant mental illness in the US is just crazy talk. Well I think you are breathing too heavily.

    I once got a Christmas card from my vet reading "Hope to see you soon" one month after she euthanized my cat. I wasn't sure if it was Christmas greetings or if she was threatening to euthanize ME.

    Always deny everything in a way that doesn’t make you lie. Best, form a question, e.g. “You didn’t get our lovely card with the reindeer?”
