My doctors office called today with the results of my recent blood work. They started out talking about that stupid A1C word. Also that my liver enzymes are elevated and they want to do a liver ultrasound up at the hospital.

How could that be? I take exquisite care of that organ and I keep it well hydrated, lubricated and happy.

Facetiousness aside, what the hell are they saying, that I have pre-diabetes and I need to start sticking needles in me, and that I need to quit drinking? Excuse me, but I'm in full denial and I call bullshit.

They obviously switched my blood with the old homeless looking guy I saw in the waiting room. Sloppy...

Needles don't work for me, period, and I drink to counter physical and emotional pain. If I follow their path I'll need to double my Celebrex intake and start seeing a shrink.

Fixing problems often create brand new ones.
