August 26 - Good Help: Not So Easy to Find

So, who's your obstetrician?
Dr. Giles.
Oh, he's great.
She.
Right. You like her?
Yeah, she's great. Very, I don't know, normal, you know? Like, she never assumes that we have the medical background to understand what she's talking about. She always does a good job of explaining everything really clearly.
Oh, that's good. How about your midwife?
Well, yeah. We're kind of up in the air at this point. Like, we had this one woman we really liked, Roberta Flack. Seriously. That was her name, Roberta Flack.
Stop it, you're killing me.
Yeah.
Softly.
Yeah, ha ha.
With his song.
Ha ha. But yeah, she had to pull out--
He he. Pull out.
?
He he.
Um, anyway, yeah, she had to pull out because of, I don't know, some aid work project. Kind of like Doctors Without Borders, only not Doctors Without Borders. Anyway, I think it's in the Philippines and she'll be there for a month doing trainings, and blah, blah, blah, and anyway, she'll be gone, which is too bad because we both really liked her.
Oh. That sucks.
And then we had another woman we also liked, but now she's moving to Buffalo of all places. And now we've been trying to meet up with this other woman we've heard good things about, but we keep missing each other. Anyway, it's taking a lot longer than we'd expected.
Yeah, I guess so. It sounds like you guys are going through a real MIDWIFE CRISIS!! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!
Ha ha ha ha ha.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!
Ha ha.
HA HA HA HA HA HA Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha ha ha ha!!
Hmm, yeah.
Ha ha ha ha! Midwife crisis. Ha ha ha. Whoo! Ha ha ha.
. . .
You know, instead of midlife crisis?
Right.
