physical education

i had to go get a complete physical today for my SCUBA clearance and part of that is a chest xray. after you change into the gown they give you these "nipple markers" that are tiny bandaids with a small lead shot in them.

x-rays with and without
she said you have to put these on so they mark your nipples on the x-ray because the flesh is denser there and it let's the doctor know they're nipples and not masses. well, i was already so nervous and sweaty after the tetanus shot, the bloodwork, the urinalysis, they spyro test because i HATE needles (i have to be strapped down...heh i said strap...) and i was just nervous anyway because if they find something or i have to go back for re-testing i'm fucked becuase i need to leave for mexico in three weeks.

so, i put them on...the gowwwwnnnnnn over my nipple. and i'm moving around and thinking "this is really stupid because the gown is moving around and now the nipple marker is moving around...."

YES! i THOUGHT THAT! THOUGHT IT! did a little light go on? nope! and i walked right out of the dressing room into the x-ray room and i don't know how the woman didn't see them but i didn't think anything of it until she had me sit and wait for it to develop in case it didn't turn out and i'm sitting there thinking, "see, these things are totally NOT on my nip....HEY!"

oh man i got so red! i just started sweating and giggling uncontrollably! and so i listened to the woman banging around in the developing room and looked down the hall quickly and put those fuckers ON my actual nipples.

the woman never said anything when she came back in to do the lateral shot.

i can't stop giggling now. i'm so stupid.
