finally, some recognition

so possibly the saddest thing about having been sick for the past two weeks is that people start to recognize you. last and this week, i've been to the doctor's office a total of three times. which also means i've been to the pharmacy at h-e-b three times. i've become a regular. while i was at the doctor's today, i said "i feel like i've become a fixture around here." and he laughed. and as i was walking out after he gave me my latest prescription, he said (and i hope jokingly) "so, same time next week?" followed by a gafaw. and then when i went to go drop off my prescription at h-e-b, one of the techs recognized me and said "ah, let's see what you have this time." sigh.

it did remind me of when i was a regular at beerland for karaoke and i became on pretty friendly terms with the bartenders. sigh. if only this were the same. maybe i could get some free drugs out of it. and not, you know, free antibiotics. that's a given. gah.
