Things overheard at the table
where the shoulder-diagnosis

"No, no โ feel that. Right there."
"I'm not โ I'm eating."
"That's a knot. That's definitely a knot."
"You've never been to medical school."
"I don't need to have been to medical school."
"Could you โ"
"Hold on, I'm not done."
[sound of wine being poured]
"Is he always like this?"
[no one answers because yes]
