The Receptionist dropped in to post a comment the other day, so I suspect the good doctor may be making a comeback quite soon.

To Don Arthur: When is Dr Troppo coming back?

Oh goodie, Troppo’s now fun again. Whadja do? Give Rafe a copy a of ‘Das Kapital’ and tell him to go away and take his time fisking it line by line? Anyway, I have a query here.

Oh help me, please doctor, I’m damaged. There’s a pain where there once was a heart. It’s sleepin, it’s a beatin’
Can’t ya please tear it out, and preserve it right there in that jar? Oh help me, please mama, I’m sick’ning. It’s today that’s the day of the plunge. Oh the gal I’m to marry is a bow-legged sow. I’ve been soakin’ up drink like a sponge. “Don’t ya worry, get dressed,” cried my mother as she plied me with bourbon so sour. “Pull your socks up, put your suit on, comb your long hair down, for you will be wed in the hour.

I was tremblin’, as I put on my jacket. It had creases as sharp as a knife. I put the ring in my pocket. But there was a note and my heart it jumped into my mouth. It read, “Darlin’, I’m sorry to hurt you. But I have no courage to speak to your face. But I’m down in Virginia with your cousin Lou, there be no wedding today.”So help me, please doctor, I’m damaged. You can put back my heart in its hole. Oh mama, I’m cryin’ tears of relief and my pulse is now under control.

Hmm, it appears I actually don’t need your services after all. Sorry to have bothered you. Nice waiting room. though. The only one I’ve seen with copies of both “Foreign Affairs Digest” and “Razzle”. Or with a receptionist playing nude solitaire on computer for that matter.

Perhaps you should check that with Doctor Troppo, Don.

Jason – I hope I don’t usually look that grumpy.

Mr Trotsky – You are quite right, my gender is none of your concern. Is there a problem you would like to discuss with Dr Troppo?

Why should I assume otherwise, in the absence of any gender identification on the part of The Receptionist? Or Doctor Troppo for that matter – who knows who is hiding behind that graphic of a stereotypical male psychiatrist? Not me.

Mr Trotsky – I am curious that you assume erotic fan fiction based around myself and Dr Troppo would qualify as ‘slash’. Please explain.

My dear receptionist – as usual you are right. I have just added a quick introduction to help readers get the gist of what’s going on here.

By the way, do you think Mr Trotsky’s comment is a plea for help or do you think he’s just showing off?

By: The Receptionist

The Receptionist — Mon, 13 Feb 2006 01:08:33 +0000

Dr Troppo – how will readers know what this is about if you don’t write an introduction?

OTOH, I can get quite creepy on other topics.

Who could pass up such an obvious invitation to write a piece of slash featuring Doctor Troppo and his cool-headed receptionist?

I could, for one.
