It seems I'm in a very talkative mood tonight, maybe it's just the pain management taking over.<P>Just had an abcess removed from my behind Wednesday and can't really sit down. [NO I DIDN'T GET A DIVORCE] Knowing you're in the medical profession I think you know what I might mean. Now I can truely say I know what a pain in the @ss is and mean it.<P>I always appreciate your responses and thank you for not thinking of me as chopped liver. I was thinking more of myself as perhaps chopped steak, not as good as the real thing, but if you put lots of salt on it, it's still very tasty.<P>Just an update, if not interested don't read this paragraph. Talked to the W tonight. I made an appointment this past week with a therapist locally who professes Solution Oriented Brief Therapy. W said the $120.00 fee was too high for 45 minutes. I asked her how much is ok to pay to save the marriage and fix the relationship. I will call again tomorrow for a new appointment.<P>Don't know if you're interested just had to tell someone, the fish are asleep.<P>Medic

Sorry to butt into a private conversation, but I don't think your chopped liver either. I still think if we drive really fast, we can make it before the bars close. <BR>Keep smiling,<BR>cc

Cee Cee<P>I don't think anything we post here is meant to be private. We always look for input from others and welcome the same, or at least I do.<P>Just had to tell CL I'm OK with the Percocet for now and the knowledge that W will go with me to counselor to fix us. <P>Wishing us all the best<P>Medic

HI Medic, SHARE!!!!!!<BR>warm sitz baths and drugs are the key!!

what's that stuff in "brave new world"? soma?<BR>let's all take a soma holiday...no side effects, no after effects, just happiness and love and temporary ESCAPE.

Hey, Let's all make a pack,[sp?]<P>We will all meet in Key West, yes, that would be in Florida, on the week of September 12th at 10:30, because that time is available for me, I have an early meeting with a nursing home to negotiate a contract that day so don't wait for me if I'm late.<P>Let's all open a bar {because I think we could drink enough to make ourselves rich} and then we leave the Chicago Police Force.<P>HELL, We put in 15 good years to the pension fund and it seems to me wer'e not the solution, hey, maybe we're the problem. Key West is as far south as we can go and not have to learn spanish.<P>Oh wait that was the film "Running Scared". Damn it, what's a good movie with Heather Locklear.<P>Sorry, not trying to make fun of our situations. Just trying to get by with my own sick humor.

opening a bar sounds better than opening a nursing home! <BR>By the time I recover from all this, I may need to be a pt in a nursing home?<BR>How are you today? When your run out of the percs, alleve seems to be good for discomfort. <BR>Hey medic, are you going against medical advice and drinking with those percs?
