On Friday, I had to go to an orthopedic surgeon because I had fallen down the stairs a few months ago and hurt my left shoulder. Before I went to see him, I had already gone and gotten an MRI and the report said that I had a tear in my rotator cuff. When I got there on Friday, the nurse told me that the doctor also likes to look at regular x-rays. So, off to the x-ray room we went. When the doctor finally came in for my exam, he was manipulating my shoulder and moved around behind me. Then he said 'Do you REALIZE that you have tattoos all over your back?' To that I replied 'OMG, what the heck did they DO TO ME IN X-RAY!!!!?????' I guess that was his attempt at making a funny. Ha Ha doh Melissa.
**chuckle chuckle** That was actaully quite cute! It reminded me of an incidence that happened only this year. Going in for my annual medical exam. After changing into one of those paper doll cut out gowns.
The Doctor noticed some of my tattoos. She shockingly replied "You do know those are permanent!". I then said "Your kidding me, I guess I forgot to read the fine print!". LOL I have since changed my Doctor. With her profession she shouldn't be thinking from within a box! LOL

With my leg piece, my boss always says to me "someone wrote all over your leg, go and wash that off". He is just joking around, but it gets old after about the 100th time he has said it. Now that I am getting my back done, he just looks at me, shakes his head, and says "what are we going to do with you?".
I just say to him,"give me a raise so I can get more work done". And then start to laugh.
I just wanted to tell you a portion of the story that I didn't realize. My husband had gone into the exam room with me and was sitting in a chair in the corner. When the doctor made his attempt at a funny and I one-upped him, my husband told me later that the doctor had a very odd look on his face. Like he didn't expect someone to come back with a funnier than thou line. Usually, I am very quiet but for some reason when he said that, I turned into the smart arse version of TAT GIRL!
