Did Everyone Start Thier Advent Calenders Today??

I sure did!! Mmm December is a tasty month lol. So let me tell u the story of my day. I got up feeling craptastic and went to the doctor. They have this new computer system that no one knows how to use yet - so my doctor walks in and says- Lindsay - Ur gonna be my guinea pig. Instilling so much confidence in me since he has misdiagnosed me more than once lol - but I just laugh and say - oh..ok. Then asks what he can do for me - I say he can make the pain go away. He says - what are ur symptoms? so I tell him and he's all - so just pain no cold or flu symptoms?? Not other than the fever no. So with this stumped look on his face he says...hmm I don't know what that could be - sounds odd. I'm like - great - last time u said that u put me on medication I didn't need. So he gives me the dreaded blood work form (they always hurt me) and an xray sheet. He tells me that the results will be in tomorrow and will call me if he can do anything - however - one good thing is he gave me a note to take to work that gives me at least 4 days off - then he said - but if I bring u back in to put u on meds I'll give u more time off work - I say - I like you Doc. So I go downstairs to the blood taking place and get in the chair and there is a guy in the room with me - I'm guessing like 40's - well he's like freaking out about having his blood taken - the nurse had to give him a pillow and the look on his face when she put the needle on - priceless (not that I enjoy other people's pain - but it was just kinda funny) so I'm kinda looking at him while mine's being taken (I'm quite used to it being as I had a lot taken before so it doesn't phase me) and he's still in there getting it done when I leave - poor guy. So I go to the xray guy and he gives me the hospital gown and says - take off everything waist up - yes sir! and gives me this odd looking gown - it has 3 holes - so he gives me a demonstartion on how to put it on - and I get it after a couple mins and go into the room where he put the lead thingy around my waist and pushes me up against the xray machine and says - u need to be flat against it - I'm thinking - buddy stop pushing - I have boobs they aren't gonna go away! but he finally gets me how he wants me and says take a deep breath and hold it (which hurts bad!) and he's like hold it....hold it... hold it...k let go. then he comes back in and makes me put my arms over my head into a very awkward pose for a side view - so he gets that one and then puts me back in the change room to get dressed and off I go. Straight from there I go to work - left arm all numb cause the nurse who took my blood bruised me...and go up and give them my note and say "see ya Monday I guess...sorry" and then the assistant manager comes out and is all - wait let's look at the schedule. She says - oh there's really no one to work for u...I say - oh yeah...well I'm not coming in. so she said oh well I guess I'll have to work. I'm like - yeah...sorry - gotta go home. and home I went and I just finished watching the Polar Express - cute movie and now I'm here - telling about my day. I shall keep u posted on the results and what kind of mysterious illness I have this time around - here's hoping I don't have more testing coming my way!
