i miss my doctor

my "old" doctor "retired" last year - he's now the director of some private medical clinic in the city. the new doctor that took over his patients (or that the clinic referred patients to when he left) is younger, a female but not as good. i always feel so rushed when i'm in there to see her and really, i only ever go for my annual checkup. and i'm convinced now that she doesn't prepare before she sees patients because she walked into the exam room today and said, "so, what can i do for you today?" you asked me to come in, remember? it should at least say that much in the notes. grr.

in a hour, i am meeting another online date, for sushi. usually i don't do meals on the first date but for a number of reasons, i had to give in. first, i don't drink alcohol. second, he doesn't drink coffee. third, i really wanted to go for sushi. fourth, he doesn't live downtown and doesn't work downtown but offered to come out my way to meet up. i think that's it.

about him - not sure why i'm meeting him, actually. he seems nice enough, although i think he's more of a boozer than he lets on. not that that's a bad thing necessarily but it's certainly not something i do so it's something to consider when screening for potential dates. in fact, his picture had him hoisting a mug of beer up to the camera - again, i can't remember why i smiled at him but i did. oh well, i guess we'll find out what he's like in a short while. i'll keep you posted.
