the Whatever exception

Allow me to introduce into evidence: my dad. I love the guy; in fact, I genuinely like him, which is a lot more than most people can say about their dads. However, he has the worst luck on the road I've ever seen. I don't know whether it's genuine bad luck or that kind of "Joe has the worst luck when he runs in traffic blindfolded!" luck but he's in the hospital again and it's the worst wreck yet. He's been there for a few weeks, which has meant I really haven't given much of a shit about the Whatever Amendment and will be there a few weeks more which will make it hard to care about the Whatever exceptions. What exceptions? I don't know. That's the point.

For the moment, he's sitting in this shitty nursing home waiting for another surgery. I don't know why people who work in places like this take the job because they obviously don't want to take care of people. I was visiting the other day and this beeping noise went on in the hall so long - read almost constantly for two hours- it drove me crazy and I went and asked a nurse to make it stop. She said "Oh..." like she hadn't heard it said and "uh, I guess I could go to the room with the light on", which was my dad's room where he'd called for pain meds like 1/2 hour ago after the brief break in beeping. Yes, I guess you can go to the fucking room with the light on, you deaf, lazy bitch. She explained that they cut the beeping off in the room when they see the patient. I decided not to beat her with a wheelchair because I might have accidentally hit my dad, as the rooms are small, but maybe I'll carry a cattle prod next time and poke the cow. Perhaps this will help, as last night I called and he said that the fuckbrains who worked the night before gave him his last pain meds then forgot to write down that he was out. Now how hard is that? "Oh this is the last one, I should make a note of that so the guy with all the broken bones can have his pain medicine tomorrow." Apparently, that is more difficult than finding all the crack they were obviously smoking. So there's my dad lying there in pain and here I am counting the days till I can sue people like this for all they are not worth just to make a point. And to vindicate my dad and all the other dads dependent on crackheads to help them. Until then, back to the Whatever exception.
