The nose plug make de ear hurt....

So poor little midgets ear was sore, and her nose was oozing green goo. It had stopped and she had no fever, and then last night it came back. So, rather than sending her to school, I took her to the SEHA Clinic here. You can walk in and see someone. It's a nice new building around the corner from our house. Of course as I walk up, the signs are in arabic with arrows. This doesn't help me, so the guard tells me ladies go that way! Um, okay, thanks? Sure enough, ladies to one side, men to the other. OH how I was wishing for my lovely Dr. Talbot in his Hawaiian shirts who has card for Monkey since he had his first ear infection when he was 2 1/2, and he cared for midget since her first snorty little piggy breaths.... :( But no, we had DR. something something Muhamed something something Alkazariad. And no, he didn't have a lovely hawaian shirt on either. Once we got it, there were the sith all around us, and a few british or dutch ladies. When we took our number, and were called back 15 minutes later to fill out the registration forms the lady was nice in her monogrammed hijab, that was quite cute, it was in crystals no less. She had to repeat herself a few times, but was nice about it and smiled. Then we were sent to the other side, which i was baffled at as it was the "mans side?" But apparently if they send you there its ok? Once they call us, and these people never say her name right, she is alice here...? We go in and went in the wrong room, sat there and was looked at oddly by the dr. Finally after about 5 minutes of him staring at an xray, which was a mammogram, this other guy says are you alice? Well, actually no, but sure lets go with that... You are here, and points to his room. Well when you call someone back, how about you wait for us with the door open so we know that? Once he looks her over, and he was nice. He says she is fine. Really? Because i tend to think green goo oozing out of any body part, is not. So i said her ear was sore and she had green stuff out her nose? He says she fine, and points to his ear, and says the nose plug makes da ear hurt... Wow, really? You went to med school where again? But then gives us some medicine, so no infection requires medicine? Strange.... But he also gave us some nose spray for allergies, which i am wondering if it is too. The dust has been blowing for a month, but is supposed to stop soon. Strange experiences :) But just remember, if your ear ever hurts, the nose plug does it... ;)
