alexpgp | Another "medical day"...

A "medical day," as opposed to a sick day.

Today was Galina's turn in the barrel, so to speak, as she has been complaining lately about... well... further deponent saith not, as it's Galina and not myself that I'm blabbing about. I will note only that I came along to the doctor's to provide moral support, and that by the time we got home, the day was about shot.

I spent the morning on the phone, as documented earlier. In between waiting rooms in the afternoon, I had several additional phone conversations. If it weren't for the subject of the conversations, I might have believed myself to be one of those high-power, always-busy executives that are seemingly adored in popular culture as they make and lose fortunes. Alas, I was merely trying to make sense of intermingled worlds that have been, until recently, largely alien to me—those of medicine and insurance.

There will be some additional conversations along such lines tomorrow, and a meeting with my insurance agent, but the bottom line is that I'm going to have to hit the ground running as far as translations are concerned.

At a minimum.

Cheers...
