    Is there something about seeing the doctor on Halloween? The last couple of Thursdays, my clinic was busy. This week, tumbleweeds, hence my wasting so much time on Twitter.

        I assume they're all busy making dental appointments for tomorrow.

        Here’s a phenomena. If you have 100,000 people in a town with 100 doctors each making $100,000 a year and you add 10 doctors, in no time they will all be making $100,000.

        Probably people busy with last minute preparations for events. Either for themselves or (more likely) for their kids.

        I regularly get three or four by the house every Halloween night. They’re tiny, but otherwise like most of the others I see: don’t stay long or say that much, but require a co-pay.

        I have an appointment today and they just called me to ask me to come in early because there's a huge gap between my original appointment and the one before it.

        Too busy eating all the candy and raising their glucose to waste time at the doctors. Plus also there are children like this around to distract from medicinepic.twitter.com/fJLQSF7X4H
