As I walked in, realized it was the other ophthalmologist
I meant to
return to; this one has an associated retail store across the hall
and one can’t help wondering about conflict of interest. But I was already there -- on time -- so wotthehell.When the receptionist talked in a whisper, realized I wasn't wearing hearing aids. Checked in anyhow, sat down, remembered I hadn’t used tweezers, don’t want someone working that close to my face if possibile chin sprouts. Cancelled appointment, left.
Drove to Staples, bought printer cartridge and copy paper, while backing out of parking space nearly ran into pedestrian. Instead of giving me the finger he grinned and said “you left your trunk open, want me to shut it?”
Stopped at Five Guys for cheeseburger (with onions), did not hear them yell order was ready, just kept sitting there.
Drove home, unloaded, discovered I'd left my purple cane somewhere along the way. Decided that if someone hired me for $35 to drive back and make inquiries in three different locations, I wouldn’t take the job. So I’ll just buy a new purple cane.
It’s only
