I wish I could remove allergies from the world. Would make life so much nicer.
Steph, is it me?? Cause, I'm like, totally preggers. (Also, Rygel Ohmlet appears to be puking in the other room. Feh. Cat vomit.)
Why is it that my scheduled 20 minute OB checkups ALWAYS seem to take about an hour, of which, at least 35 minutes is spent waiting around reading whatever freaking reading material is on hand, usually ancient issues of Vogue and Elle that I read the last time I was there?
So not your fault Jilli, and while I'm sure the first e-mail was meant to be polite, it probably would have been better for the supervisor to have just told you in the first place. It may not even be how much, but a what. Perfume doesn't bother me at all unless it's a few kinds. I don't know what they have in them, but the make me nausous. They don't even smell bad to me.
Oh, and by the way, what Ginger said about the star in the east? Me too. So very much NOT pregnant, thankyouverymuch.
Plei, at least you get magazines with girls in them. For some reason, at my gyne's office, all the magazines are fly-fishing themed. I've seen young pregnant Latina women, peering at them suspiciously.

This is so true. I'm not generally allergic but artificial rose scent makes me wheezy. I had to ask a co-worker once to not wear the perfume she always wore because of it. It was a little awkward but I tried to emphasize how I didn't think her perfume smelled bad it just made it hard for me to breathe. I think it helped that I could be specific. She stopped wearing that perfume to work and we were fine.
Oh and Head & Shoulders shampoo does the same thing. I can always tell if that's what someone is using.

Because your time is not as important as your doctor's.
Not that I'm bitter.

Except for the people that don't show up on time and get seen anyway.
Not to mention the people who show up unexpectedly bleeding to death.

At a gynecology office? That can't be good.
And practically nonexistent for a dermatologist.
