I’m at the emergency room…. One of the fellows who works for me rolled
his SUV off the side of a hill on his way to work this morning. He’s OK,
just getting checked out. He has just moved here from Dallas, Texas and has
gotten a rude introduction to snowy and icy roads. So, I’m an interested
bystander as I sit here in the waiting room. There are quite a few folks
here — mostly elderly — with a variety of ailments. A couple have been
here a long time waiting to be seen. My guy got in about an hour and a half
after arriving. Four other people are waiting to be seen and two of them
were here before my guy arrived. One is having stomach pains and the other
has been passing blood in his stool. Who knows how much longer they will
have to wait!

From here I’ll take Roy to where they’ve taken his (totalled) vehicle so he
can get his keys, papers and stuff, and the child’s car seat. Then I’ll
take him back to his apartment so he can arrange for a rental car and take
car of his insurance stuff. His day is all screwed up — mine just includes
a visit to the emergency room’s waiting room….
