podiatrist

well, today i went and saw a podiatrist for the first time ever!
see, i've been having acupuncture for several months now, and my doctor decided two weeks ago that i should have a break from acupuncture for two months, to give all the holes she's stabbed into me with her needles some time to heal (obviously not true. :P)
so last thursday night, when i was about to sleep, i told my left foot, "elf (emily's left foot), we're not going to see dr. lin tomorrow for acupuncture." she wasn't happy with that @ all, and said, 'emily, you sleep. i'll think of some reason to see dr. lin tomorrow."
come the next morning, i'm awoken by mother gasping, "emily, what's wrong with your left foot?! it's all SWOLLEN!" meaning elf got her wish: we went to see dr. lin that day. :P i told her how elf'd gotten all jealous about not being able to see dr. lin, so had purposely swollen! :P she laughed, then decided, "we'd better continue, then!" :P
but dr. lin refers me to this podiatrist on logan rd. called evonne (forgotten her last name. yau?) we make an appointment to see her. hey, she speaks canto, too! and not only that, she's aunty rose's daughter!!! aunty rose was a cleaner when i was @ BIRU; we often talked!
so elf gets a pedicure. :P nah, not really. evonne just fiddles with her a lil. when we leave, we meet her hubby (andrew?), who shows us a ultrasound photo of their new bub! they've already chosen a name for him, oliver! best of all, he's doing a thumbs up for the photo! :) well, he'll definitely be a handsome kid, all mixed-blood babies are. :)
anyways, next post should come toms; i also attended book club tonight! until then~
cheers,
em. ^^
