I was also a medical person, and you have to have a great twisted sense of humor to endure it. I used to call the doctors office and get the ditzy receptionist and always ask her weird things like, " I have a small razor stuck in my teeth, I tried to get a peice of steak out and it broke off, the only problem is I keep cutting my tongue and bleeding, do you think I should wait to get it removed tomorrow, there is a really good concert I want to go to tonight, you know, Steppin Wolf is playing at My Father's Place, and I would feel horrible if I missed it. I will try not to put my tongue on that side of my teeth, but their songs are really good and I might cut it more singing along, but I should be okay, What do you think?" and she would say, well go to the concert then. Ditz. Or since she always misfiled results, I would ask her to look in a file I knew and get out the results for v.d. test, I need to know cause I got a hot date, knowing full well it wouldn't be there. She'd come back on the line and say, no, it didn't come back yet, so I would ask does she think I should have sex with or without a condom, he is so hot I really don't want to use one, and she of course, in her abundant knowledge of nothing would say, do whatever you think is right!
Well, I am so glad to hear you had a good day, my fear is usually before doing something, and I work myself up for nothing. Sounds like you did too.
Keep up the humor, and congrats!!!
