5 Hours in the Emerg Waiting room last night

Postby Masato » Tue May 12, 2015 6:36 pm

BIG mistake, lol

My daughter stubbed her toe quite badly, it was all swollen and she kept saying it feels really weird. So I succumbed to the x-ray cultural knee-jerk reaction

5 FUCKING HOURS, lol

Small fracture. Take it easy/let it heal - which I basically already knew before I left. Kids make you do funny things.

My wife laughed at me, lol She knows better :D


However it was quite entertaining from a peopl-watching point of view. When we arrived a whole bunch of cops brought in a young girl in a prom dress in handcuffs.

To me she was just a kid and looked harmless, she had a good sense of humor while being cattled around by a bunch of pigs.

So we sat with her in the waiting room and she talked with me and my daughter for a while.

About 40 minutes in, SHE ESCAPED HER HANDCUFFS!!!

lol it was hilarious. I was impressed. She just smiled at us and pretended she was still cuffed. I didn't get to see how/when she revealed that she escaped.

The cops were there to have her psychologically evaluated to see if she's a danger etc. She told us her dad got murdered a while ago and she's a bit fucked up about it. But also has some light in her eye, I have good hopes she'll be OK.

I thought it was a very cool experience for my daughter to see.

The rest of the time in the hospital pretty much sucked though lol

Glad she's alright.

Once while we were waiting (they call you like 5 times, each time you basically just move to a different chair and then wait some more, lol) my daughter told me with certainty that she could organize the place much better so people didn't have to wait so long.

I wonder if she's right
