the clog

Yeah, so I lied...

I know that I didn't post yesterday. I meant to, but I didn't. Why? Because I'm a lazy bastard who was busy stuffing his face with good food. Can you really blame me? I had spent the last 5 months living on only one meal a day because I couldn't stomach the less palatable food of Malaysian eateries. Yeah, some people may call me finicky, but can you really blame me? I'm paying to be fed and I expect the food to be good. Is that too much to ask? Anyway, yeah, homecooking rocks eggs. The best part of it is that since it is spring here, sometimes on a whim I bring out my freshly baked croissants out onto the patio and eat breakfast there. The flora and fauna here (in Switzerland) is just awe inspiring. If I were a painter I would just prop up my easel and paint the day away. The colours! You could almost hear a cacophany of sounds as the flowers burst open to welcome the spring. Yeah, I'll stop waxing lyrical now. It's not like I can post any pictures anyway (still working on how I can afford a decent digicam).

Anyhoo, I really did mean to post something yesterday, but like I said, I was too lazy. But if I did it would probably have been short. Like this:

A short post...

Going to have a brain scan today. I hope that the radiologist is a chick this time around.... I mean, are radiologists supposed to be sweaty men? I hope that's not a prerequisite to being a radiologist. That would make me sad.

And that would have been the end of the post. Sure, I may decide to rant a bit more, but that would have been the meat and potatoes of the post. Yeah, I'm into high culture. Anyway, I went to the neurosurgeon's yesterday to get my head examined. No, not because I'm crazy. I went there to make sure that I didn't have a brain tumour or anything like that. Anyway, the highlight of the trip was the CAT scan! Or at least it would have been if the doctor actually gave me a brain scan. That's right: I was gypped! No CAT scans, no X-rays, no CT Scans, no nothing! The doctor just looked at my past records and gave me some proselyctic medicine (or something to that effect...do I look like a doctor to you?). Admittedly, it is working well, though I have to eat it everyday. And at least I'm not getting any crappy medication like carefogot (which doesn't work at all....seriously, if you're suffering from migraines and you're reading this post and your doctor says: "try carefogot". Tell him/her to shove it because it don't work). And at least the doctor has heard of Zomig (the only medication so far that seems to work well). Malaysian doctors haven't even heard of it.

So now I've finally got medicine that works (I had a migraine the other day and I was fine after 3 hours! woo hoo! Usually, with the other medicine, I'm stuck in bed 'til night. Ack). Whew, that was long winded.

Anyway, the point that I'm trying to make is that I didn't get my brain scanned and there wasn't a hot nurse to ogle at. Why am I constantly thwarted at every turn?! Someone up there hates me....
