re: #43 mmmirele

I’m going to the doctor in a little while because I need renewals on a whole raft of prescriptions…and I have an earache. It just feels weird going in at my age (late 50s) and saying, “I have an earache.” But I do, I have an earache. It’s not like it’s interfering with my life but it’s not normal. The PA will probably just look down my ear canal and see some inflammation and it will all be a big nothingburger. That’s what I keep telling myself because I haven’t had an earache since LBJ was in office.

“I ain’t goin’ to school today. I got a earache!”

“‘Earache’ my eye! I’ll give you a buttache!”
