One time, a failure to remember an issue with Indy\u2019s blood pressure and associated medication took me three texts, four emails, and two phone calls to get straightened out with Indy\u2019s team of doctors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There was also that time Indy needed an MRI before he could see neurology. I had called in a few favors to get Indy into a neurologist.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So yes. Willie never told Indy about the MRI I scheduled for him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And took Indy to a baseball game instead of the MRI.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And thought it was acceptable to A) forget about the appointment and B) prioritize baseball over healthcare because this tremor in Indy\u2019s left hand is nothing anyway.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was on vacation in Wyoming when I found out. I had to call MRI to reschedule, then reshuffle the favors I called in to change the neurology appointment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re probably asking yourself who vacations in Wyoming.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ranks. Ranks vacation in Wyoming. We Ranks don&#8217;t take beachy, umbrellas-in-your-drink vacations. We take what I call working vacations. Hikes. History lessons. Houses with woodpiles and ponds with little boats, both of which have snakes in them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I used to be surprised by these vacations. Then I started wondering when we would take a normal people vacation. Then the Stockholm Syndrome finally settled in so now that\u2019s just the way we vacation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One persistent problem with the Rank Working Vacations is sometimes cell service is spotty, as was the case in Wyoming.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Awful, right? I mean, we had Wi-Fi, but am I a prisoner of some sort? Why do we have to be somewhere with almost no cell service? And no Starbucks? And no Target? And no other people or buildings or signs of any civilization except for the one-room schoolhouse across the street?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Am I being punished? Am I supposed to think the excellent fishing, potential for bear attacks on the way to the car, and 4000 hot springs in Yellowstone make up for everything else?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Indeed I am. Because, you know, a bison walked <em>right past<\/em> our car on the Wyoming highway taking us into Yellowstone. You can\u2019t experience that in Target.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Although Target does have a really cute picture of a Highland cow in their home d\u00e9cor section.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So trying to reschedule Indy\u2019s appointments from a house with limited cell service and no landline was a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When I tried to say as much to Willie, she told me her failure to remember the MRI was a moot issue; the baseball game would have precluded her from sending Indy to the MRI whether she remembered it or not.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So I don\u2019t trust Indy and Willie.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mostly Willie though because I like Indy better.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-118 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.22.49-PM-247x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"247\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.22.49-PM-247x300.png 247w, https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.22.49-PM-768x931.png 768w, https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.22.49-PM-300x364.png 300w, https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.22.49-PM.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 247px) 100vw, 247px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Indy and Willie\u2019s appointment for the two-hour driving test was the first week in December. The therapists explained Indy and Willie would need a referral. I downloaded the referral form from their website.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Indy and Willie just happened to have an in-person appointment with their doctor scheduled for that week. I brought the form to Indy and Willie, all filled out except for their doctor\u2019s signature.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I showed Willie and Indy the form. I explained their doctor needed to sign it for the driving test. Then I tucked the form in Willie\u2019s purse.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The next day, I texted their doctor. I told him to check Willie\u2019s purse for a referral form.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a good thing you did that,\u201d Willie told me later. \u201cI had no idea what the doctor was talking about when he asked for the form.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re warming up to my mistrust, aren\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I picked up Indy and Willie on the day of their test. Indy was silent as we drove.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We entered the office or, as I like to call it, the garden where Willie\u2019s seeds of hatred were planted.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The staff requested Indy and Willie\u2019s driver\u2019s licenses. Indy couldn\u2019t locate his. Indy\u2019s wallet was thick with membership cards to stores that no longer exist.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Later, I would tell Don the wallet was like George Costanza\u2019s wallet on <em>Seinfeld<\/em>. Don joked that if we thinned it out, maybe it would cure Indy\u2019s Parkinson\u2019s like doing so had cured George\u2019s back pain.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I located Indy\u2019s license and handed it over.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Willie had already produced her license. As the staff checked it over, they noted the license was expired.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo it\u2019s not,\u201d said Willie. She handed them a piece of paper.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is just your camera card. It expired months ago,\u201d the staff pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Willie, exasperated, explained that if they would just check the date of the camera card, they would see it had been issued in February. The pandemic started soon after, so what was Willie supposed to have done? Go stand in long lines at the DMV, waiting to get her picture taken?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s old, Willie told the staff. She couldn\u2019t risk getting COVID. Her license isn\u2019t expired, she insisted.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I explained to Willie that, without the new picture, her license was indeed expired.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You know in <em>Ghostbusters<\/em> when Gozer is on the roof with the Ghostbusters, and she tells them to die as she shoots lightning from her fingertips?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. It was that bad.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Willie told me she had used the license all year with no problem. She\u2019d even showed it to a police officer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t ask why Willie was showing her driver\u2019s license to a police officer. There are only so many problems I can fix in a day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The staff tried to explain that, without a license, their insurance prevented them from putting Willie in one of their cars. She would have to renew her license and reschedule the test.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m leaving!\u201d Willie declared. \u201cI\u2019m not staying here!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, she forgot she didn\u2019t have a car there, which isn\u2019t exactly a ringing endorsement of your ability to drive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I reminded her that she\u2019d ridden over in my car.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen I\u2019m going outside!\u201d she roared.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sighing, I ordered Willie to stay put while we got Indy settled. Being a dictator probably didn\u2019t score me any points with Willie, but I knew there was nowhere <em>to<\/em> wait outside.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As the staff spoke with Indy, Willie turned to me. \u201cI\u2019m NOT coming back here. You know that, right?\u201d she hissed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll discuss it later,\u201d I said, like a parent disciplining a willful child.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you ever want to murder the affection your parent has for you, treat them like a toddler. That should pretty much get the job done.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the weeks since my epic tumble from favorite child to least favorite child, I have renewed Willie\u2019s driver\u2019s license \u2013 which also made her angry with me \u2013 and rescheduled her driving test.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not going,\u201d Willie told me last week, a spectacular show of defiance that was clearly meant to be my Christmas present, despite being two weeks late.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I again got to be the bad guy, insisting that she go.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I remember reading an interview where Anthony Hopkins described how often he\u2019s asked about Hannibal Lecter, despite the other roles he\u2019s played. He said people remember the bad guys, and that makes the bad guys fun to play.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t think it\u2019s wise to argue with a guy who relishes having played a cannibal, so I\u2019ve decided to embrace the villain Willie has made me.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I won\u2019t eat anyone though. I eat enough weird stuff as it is \u2013 venison heart, anyone? \u2013 and I\u2019m definitely not eating anything Willie has prepared, human or not. I don\u2019t like Willie\u2019s cooking, which probably does nothing to improve my Most Hated Daughter status.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Willie makes this dish called Beef Skillet Fiesta which could only be made worse if she did actually put humans in it. I\u2019d rather eat the skillet than the beef fiesta cooked in it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I just realized how good I am at being a bad guy. Just a few weeks in and I already have a mortal enemy. I\u2019ve attacked something she holds precious \u2013 in this case Beef Skillet Fiesta. If Willie were Iron Man, my dad would be Pepper Potts. But Beef Skillet Fiesta would be Rhoady.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_119\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-119\" style=\"width: 293px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-119\" src=\"http:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.23.38-PM-293x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"293\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.23.38-PM-293x300.png 293w, https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.23.38-PM-768x786.png 768w, https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.23.38-PM-300x307.png 300w, https:\/\/wendirank.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Screen-Shot-2021-02-25-at-6.23.38-PM.png 846w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 293px) 100vw, 293px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-119\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Whatever it is I\u2019m eating here, I can guarantee you it\u2019s not Beef Skillet Fiesta.
