Isn't it Fitting,

Considering a previous, that this post is an announcement that . . . Yup, you guessed it:







The Z-Monster had to go to the ER today. He was fooling around tipping his chair back on two legs (exactly the way he's been told not to five or six times a day since we got them) when he lost his balance and fell. He landed with his ear on the table, and tore open the skin behind his ear. I wasn't positive, but it looked like it might need stitches, so off we went to urgent care.

When we got there, the Dr. looked at his wound, proclaimed that it would need at least one stitch, gave the Z-monster some stickers, and sent us off to the ER. (I will refrain from expressing my feelings about THAT.)

At the ER, we signed in, and waited, got the Z-monster's vitals taken, and waited, were seen by the triage nurse, and waited, were sent back out to the waiting area, and waited, were taken back to the exam room, and waited, and FINALLY, here comes the Dr, who looks at the Z-monster's injury, states that it is healing really well, and doesn't need stitches at all. He does congratulate me on icing it down really well, and sends a nurse in to wash the wound.

So . . . all in all, a frustrating waste of time.
