Hospitals scare me. I don't like hospitals. I just got back from visiting my friend Dave in one and have just a few minutes before band so I thought I'd reflect on this. I hate illness and disease. They kind of scare me. I don't take medicine, not even Tylenol, unless it is an absolute last resort. I will take percription drugs if a doctor makes me. I don't want to get immune or resistant to the drugs in case I really need them in the future. I didn't want to go visit Dave today. Not because I don't like him; he's a great guy. He's 30 years old and he has the body of an 80 year old though, I swear. Poor guy. All those health problems. That kind of thing terrifies me. I definitely don't want to spend any time in hopsitals and hope I just die quietly in my sleep one day before I get too old and need serious medical attention. Anyway, on that sombering note, it's band time.
Qop!

"That's funny, I thought most doctors were people."
"Then you were wrong. Ask any patient."
