I found that the boobie smashing wasn't that bad, but the machine pressing against your sternum hurt like a bitch.

Spike's Bitches 43: Who am I kidding? I love to brag.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I find it helps to concentrate on how space-age and complex and cool the machine is, but then I'm a big geek.
No, this sounds like me. I'm all about - oooh, look at that. How does that work? What does that do? Even so, still kinda nervous. I also feel pathetic in the NGA way.
Can't comment on the mamm (though really, I should get on that) but wisdom teeth removal is not too scary. No fun, for sure, and you'll be tired out and taking some painkillers for a few days, but it usually isn't any worse than that.
The mamm hurts those of us with less than bountiful boobies because there's not only squishing, there is stretching in order to get enough booby between the plates.
All right, time for me to go. Y'all have a lovely evening.
Whew. I have completed the one Christmas present I knew what I was doing! (Making a calendar on iPhoto for a friend, which involved scanning a bunch of old pictures and shit). Of course, then I realized I didn't have her address, so had to email her for that, so I haven't actually ORDERED it yet, but...
I'm so bad about shopping and getting Christmas presents. Argh.
Boobie~ma to Suzi.
YAY Sparky and DH! Lucky little Babyfras! That's fantastic, excellent, utterly wonderful news!
Also yay on making it through the sucktastic first trimester. I'm in complete awe of you making a first-trimester teaching trip to Poland. Between the nausea and the constant crushing exhaustion it's a real slog even for a non-world-traveler. I can't believe you went and taught on a whole other continent without just curling up in a ball and never moving again.
Quick drive by to say: Sparky1!!! Congrats! Lucky kid, getting you two as parents.
Mammograms, while uncomfortable and occasionally painful, don't last long - really, it's not that bad.
Wisdom tooth removal again, while painful, doesn't have to be the ordeal that many people make of it (unless the tooth in question is badly impacted).
(signed, no discernable pain threshold)
I skipped some but -- congrats Sparky! yay babyfras!
GC-- Mom had a cat she had to have put down because the cat attacked her, and the vet, and the vet techs, and anyone else, all the time. Mom was torn of this, but she talked to the vet and the animal shelter and they both told her that was really all she could do. The cat (named Zoe...) was almost two by this time and Mom got her as a kitten. The vet said that really there was nothing that could be done.
Mom only did this after she was bit for the third time and it was almost bad enough to need stitches.
