Playing it BY EAR

I’M at the pharmacy in the small town where we're staying — any excuse, really, because I love nothing more than a small-town pharmacy; but this time I actually do have earache. My husband is entirely unsympathetic, even though, as always, I'm pretty sure my condition is a) rare and b) potentially fatal. The pharmacy is packed, and while I'm waiting I comfort myself by imagining how bad he'll feel when he learns how little time I have left on this earth, and how noble I will be about it. It'll make him feel so much worse.
