Healthcare everywhere sucks, even if the country has a national plan it does not mean you get any better or faster service. But it's a shame to pay so much out of my pay check every two weeks just to be insured as well, and still get shitty service.

Here (at least where I live...middle of nowhere) you either wait around 2 weeks to see your regular doctor or go to the (usually slow / over-used) Emergency Room. Sucked when I had the flu last year. By the time you get to see a doc, you are over it. Yeah, healthcare here sucks!

| | | Becks wrote: | | LOL! 
Man I am bored, I'm home alone till tomorrow morning and don't really want to go outside. I have conjunctivitis (lovely, not) and actually feel pretty unwell on top of that. My body gets no reprieve from illness! LOL!

| | | Becks wrote: | | awesome! I can't laugh, I would have been exactly the same!

I went screaming to the front of the line jumping up and down! LOL
| | | Becks wrote: | | Haha that's awesome! I was always in line for my reserved copy too, with the last one I got a little Hedwig soft toy. It was also the day that Craig and I got engaged, so I was on a massive high that day for several reasons LOL!
| | | spapad wrote: | | Such a good series of books I was standing in line each summer with all the kids and parents, but there for myself! HA!! The last book midnight sale I was there and had been the the nearby pub for about and hour so I was really hyper! I kept answering all the trivia questions, and winning little prizes, and then I won one of the ultimate prizes. I was third in line, due to a drawing to get my reserved copy! Went from about 75th in line to 3rd! I was one happy camper! I actually took the day off after the book release because I knew I would read it from cover to cover with very little sleep involved. Huge fan of the books.

| | | spapad wrote: | | LOL, Snape as a touch of Evil. I have read all the books and in the end it is revealed that essentially, Snape was probably the most loyal person to Proff. Dumbledore. Really, he is always vindicated, even his killing of Dumbledore was on the Proff's order.
