...he just keeps me hangin' on.....why don't you be a man about it....(some half remembered song replaying in my head)

Who sung it?  What are the lyrics?

I phoned the secretary of the terribly offended never darken my door again I don't even want to breathe the same air as you neurologist to find out whether I had been discharged or referred on to the MS specialist as I asked, to tell me for sure I DO NOT HAVE THIS, or whatever.

But no.  A letter is on its way.  U-turn on the motorway of my rage?  Isn't that illegal and dangerous?  He wants to see me again.  He has declared himself once again, my neurologist.  Nobody else shall have me.  I'm his, all his.  He's maybe grown to miss the whippings and abuse, what with all those other patients being so dam nice to him.  A d o m i n a t r i x  for free?

....Last night just the three hours sleep, if you're wondering, and my brain is all spotty too remember, pity me.

No news re disability.  No meeting with government Psychiatrist to clear my name.  Just need to keep the insanity and lose the apathy, and they'll all have a full blown maniac on their hands.  I can't wait!  Just as long as they catch me between bouts of being drugged up to the eyeballs or too depressed to breathe I can be quite menacing.

I even managed a little "woof" down the phone.  That showed 'em.

Time to start placing bets - does wish have ms or not?  will she get any government help or not?  will her name get cleared or not?  will her harrasser spontaneously combust or not?....hurry, lines close at midnight, and the winner gets permanently cured and eternal youth.  (Disclaimer: prize may vary from that advertized)

Wish,
The final stanza is appropriate - here it is, needing to be sung with feeling....  Lulu


Why don't you be a man about it
And set me free
Now you don't care a thing about me
You're just using me
Go on, get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on...

Thanks, Mary Kay, I was trying to shake that loose from my brain, too, and thought I would be stuck with it for the rest of the day!

Wish, no bets, just WellWishes!  That means wishing Wish well, OK ?

Hey, a second chance to build a relationship with your neuro that doesn't include whips; I like that!  You are such a kick in the pants!  I don't know sometimes whether to feel bad for what you're going though or laugh until I pee because of your dramatization.  

How about both, but without the peeing?

Be mellow,

Kathy

You are too much!!   The song is by the Supremes...aka Diana Ross, I think.   "Set me free, why don't cha babe!  Get out (a) my life, why don't cha babe.  You don't really want me. You just keep me hanging on!  Go Motown!

Peace,
Mary Kay
