Right smack in the middle of the day

I have a regularly scheduled quarterly appointment in Fort Wayne at 1 pm today. It is a fifteen minute in and out doctor thing.  And it’s in the middle of the day. Why can’t this guy be in his office in the morning? Huh? Is he not aware that AmeliaJake has things to do on Summer days? It’s not like there is a Crate & Barrel in Fort Wayne – although there is a GoodWill right across the street from his office.

See, this is an example of my talent for complaining about anything; I actually staked claim to the 1 pm time slot because in the winter that middle of the day scheduling is helpful – if there has been snow, it has been scraped and if it is getting ugly, I can cancel. There’s plenty of time to get home before the five o’clock darkness comes.

BUT IT IS NOT WINTER RIGHT NOW. I don’t want to traipse down there all cleaned up and then come back to decide whether to preserve my cleanliness or go for the dirt of the attic and recently delivered dumpster. I guess I will just have to treat myself to something.
