Let's do the time warp, again...

Mary: "Dr. Grumpy's office, this is Mary."

Mr. Sundial: "Hi, what time is my appointment today?"

Mary: "Um, you missed it. It was at 9:00 this morning."

Mr. Sundial: "What time is it now?"

Mary: "10:15 a.m."

(long pause)

Mr. Sundial: "So can I still come in at 9:00 this morning?"

That space-time continuum thing is just too hard for some folks.

There are days when I wish that were possible. :)

Well, does he have a Delorean? Does he have enough Plutonium? Is the Flux Capacitor functioning correctly? If so, it might be ok...it might just work out. If not, he'll have to wait for a lightening storm and the lightening will have to hit the clock tower.

I think I just talked to this gentleman at the Highway Patrol office, or his cousin.

Maybe he thinks the long pause works comparable to T-rex vision in Jurassic Park.... "If I wait long enough, Mary will forget what time it is."

I love it! That's awesome!! On the up side, at least it's easy for you to tell which patients REALLY need your help.

I have, in the last few weeks, developed a full appreciation for this dilemma. All I can say is: AARGH!

All I can say is third column, second row... again. ::head:laptop:: Poor, poor Mary. Tell me, is there a particular phrase she'd like on a graphic? I'd be glad to design one for her. I'll be putting up some new ones in that section some time in the next week or two when I change prices from sale back anyway.

[I hope that made sense. For some reason my Imitrex self-injector grew legs and ran away. grrrrrr Either that or the Teenage Mutant Ninja Kitty Horde thought it was a toy and stole it. No, really!!]
