This week in review...

I've been pretty busy this last week. I totally forgot to mention that last Saturday, I had the most awesomest Easter dinner I have ever had. It was so awesome that anything I've eaten since then gets compared to that day, and doesn't measure up. Really. I'm eating good food now, and at best, I feel "meh" about it.

Also within the last few days, I've been clamoring to re-acquire my Alberta Health Care.

It only took 2 back-to-back days (after work) of trying to find the damn registry office, wandering downtown like a super-retarded GPS, and getting hit up for spare change or cigarettes by a plethora of hobos. It turns out that the weird address I was trying to find was in the bloody Edmonton City Centre mall! A place I went to get my picture I.D. a year-or-two ago. I felt seriously retarded while waiting my turn in line. I even think I smacked my head as I saw the poster on the wall encouraging re-registration for AHC. It literally took 2 minutes for the very animated clerk-lady to punch in my data and hook me back up with the joys of health care. And then I felt only slightly less retarded on the way home. I got some subs from Subway to celebrate my triumph. Yes, my life is very sad.

Finally feeling some momentum building, I decided to go see the doctor for some advice concerning the weird panic attacks I've been getting recently. After work today, I trundled off to the nearest medi-centre and ended up sitting for an hour right next to a mother and her spawn, who for sickies, seemed to have no problem being little hyper-active dildos. When I finally got to see a doctor, I tried to explain and elaborate on my weird mental state, but he seemed to focus mostly on the panic issues. I found myself unable to bring the topic back to the fact that they are but a symptom tied to a larger issue. An issue for which I'd like to seek psychiatric assessment. So what ended up happening was me getting sporked with needles, getting my heart checked with an EKG, and pissing in a test tube. All-in-all, a far cry from what I went there for in the first place. I can appreciate that the doctor wanted to be thorough, and check for a physiological cause. But I'm fairly certain that any tests done are going to come back pretty normal. Overall, I am very not amused.

I got more subs on the way home, but was much less triumphant about acquiring them. Probably because I think today kind of sucked ass. And by "kind of" I mean "really".

At least I have the next 3 days off, maybe something awesome will happen. Might have H over, and we'll scarf some Edo and watch movies.
