Arg!

So they said "how about Saturday or Sunday -- the 11th or 12th?"

I said, "sure, Saturday the 11th then."

"Great", they said, "you're all signed up."

*some time later*

"Hey, the 11th is a Friday. Well, they must have misspoken."

*gnawing doubt*

*phone call*

"So? We're on for Saturday? The 12th?"

"Um...no, we have you listed for Friday the 11th. There's someone else scheduled for the 12th."

This isn't something I can easily reschedule, it really needs to be that week or it won't happen until, like, November which is just way too late. Work is good about letting me go, but I feel bad about asking since I'm already taking off a chunk at the end of September. It also means I'll probably be doing this on my own. The only upside is that I'll be done and back home on Saturday night so I'll have a day to sit around and go "ow".

darn it

this would be elective surgery of some kind ... ?

Sorry for the trouble anyway.

[bluegargantua]

Yeah, of a sort. Getting my tattoo finished up.

Cool. I hope to see pictures!

Your grumbling about work suddenly has me envisioning a new service: tattoos at your work! They'll come to you, just like windshield replacement...

Sure, there's a few kinks to work out, but you could keep working while they tattoo you.

(hehehe)

"...you could keep working while they tattoo you."

Yeah, just like that girl who fell asleep while they tattooed her face.

Where are you going for it?

Timebomb in Fredrick MD

Can you at least make a surgical-strike nookie-run out of the trip, too?

[bluegargantua]

I know, right? Sadly the nookie I'd be operating on will be in Tulsa. Happily, my wife will be going along with me.
