Doctors Without Borders





And here, faster than Michel Gondry can solve a Rubik's Cube with his puddies, are my playlists from today:

Okay, so. I have a friend who told me that his ex-girlfriend was asked out by her male gynecologist. I was sort of appalled by that. One time, my doctor asked me out, but he was NOT a gynecologist. He was, however, roughly thirty years older than I, which was what made it a little uncomfortable for me. He'd been my doctor since I was a teenager. Hmmm. What do you all think of that? Is it always crossing a line if a doctor asks out a patient? What if it's your ear, nose and throat guy? Or your podiatrist? What if he or she is your age?



In other news, Senator Tim Johnson, the Democratic Senator from South Dakota, has fallen ill and the Democrats' Senate majority is now looking much more tenuous. Republicans could end up in charge of the Senate again. Read this Reuters article for a brief explanation. Sigh.

In still other news, Bikeride has a new album coming out and is sending me a copy. How nice are they? Very nice. Read wonderful, gushing reviews of Tony Carbone's (lead singer/songwriter) and Bikeride's work over here.

    Jeez, my feet are dumb compared to his. The rubik's cube guy's feet, not the doctor's feet, I mean.

    By the way, how about a christmas playlist?

    I asked out my dentist. She is only 8-9 months older than I am. We have similar interests and I took her out to dinner. I don't know the (ethical) rules involved, but we enjoy each other's company.

    It just feels creepy to have your doctor checking you out while you're in a vulnerable situation. They've got the upper and gloved hand. Off the top of my head, here's my guideline: The bigger the age difference and the more "intimate" the area being investigated, the higher on the Inappropriate Scale. I'd be willing to bet a large sum that this is mostly done by male doctors. I need to go cleanse my mental palate with some Loony Tunes now.
