instead of typing it all out again, i’ll just paste my convo with kristi earlier about my boob dr appt.
FadedJade23 (4:09:45 PM): man, i went to the dr this morning, sat there for an hour, he walks in, tears off two of the steri-strips, tells me to take the rest off at home and use some vitamin e cream for a while to avoid scarring
kriSti m 14 (4:12:36 PM): huh..
FadedJade23 (4:10:37 PM): no cancer, not pre-cancer either, you can run, dance, whatever, just keep in mind it’s not gonna feel great for a while, might wanna keep wearing a tight bra. merry christmas
FadedJade23 (4:10:40 PM): and that was it.
kriSti m 14 (4:13:00 PM): well thats good news, yes!
FadedJade23 (4:10:57 PM): didn’t even give me a chance to talk
kriSti m 14 (4:13:11 PM): aww
FadedJade23 (4:11:18 PM): didn’t ask if i had questions, if i had any unusual pain or anything
kriSti m 14 (4:13:34 PM): wow, what a dr.
FadedJade23 (4:11:35 PM): i wanted to ask about what caused it, and some other stuff
FadedJade23 (4:11:52 PM): and wanted to talk to him about the unusual amount of muscle pain i was having
kriSti m 14 (4:14:05 PM): yea…
FadedJade23 (4:12:14 PM): and try to get him to excuse me from work a little longer
FadedJade23 (4:12:19 PM): but nope
kriSti m 14 (4:14:46 PM): that sucks 
FadedJade23 (4:13:32 PM): lol i mean i know he’s a specialist and has a lot of people to see, but “any questions?” “how are you feeling?”—one of the two should be used in every dr/patient convo, i think
kriSti m 14 (4:15:53 PM): i believe so as well
FadedJade23 (4:14:15 PM): i was gonna go to work anyway
FadedJade23 (4:14:33 PM): but yeah, i didn’t get to sleep till after 6am
FadedJade23 (4:14:42 PM): then got up at 8
kriSti m 14 (4:17:02 PM): aww that sucks
FadedJade23 (4:15:07 PM): so when i woke up a little before one, still sleeping like a brick, i decided i wasn’t going
FadedJade23 (4:15:44 PM): so i called and told them i fell down the stairs and landed where i just had my surgery and i called my dr back and he told me to take it easy today
kriSti m 14 (4:18:06 PM): aww
FadedJade23 (4:16:11 PM): i thought that was a good lie
kriSti m 14 (4:18:22 PM): lol very nice
FadedJade23 (4:16:28 PM): it’s been raining all day 
it’s slippery
kriSti m 14 (4:18:40 PM): yes, yes it is
FadedJade23 (4:16:54 PM): haha except now i’ll probably really fall ’cause i haven’t fallen down them yet
i went to wal mart and remembered how much i HATE wal mart during the holidays. i found everything i needed except the vitamin E cream though. i’ve still got a little of that. i missing a container though. i had two when i originally bought it and the only one i can find is the almost empty one though.
for the record: my boob hurts a lot. pulling off the steri-strips was terrifying ’cause i didn’t know how much the incision had healed so i had the frightening thought of pulling it open or something. it’s funny ’cause they removed a lump, but there’s still a huge lump ’cause it’s all knotted up from surgery.
i’m gonna go wrap jesalyn’s presents now

Wow, that conversation really shows my use of vernacular and expansive understanding of the english language, yes?

what a shitty doctor. i can’t believe he didn’t go ahead and take off all the strips for you. he should know that you would be scared to do that yourself; hell, after my appendectomy, i was frightened to death my insides were going to fall out if i tore a steri-strip off. good lie, by the way. lol. and i saw that part in that 70’s show last night (”fez is making ice!”), and i laughed for about 10 minutes straight.
