    Crazy question

    Lady wanted to know if we had similar tastes in glasses so she gauged my fashion sense on this question:

    Do you think sex is fun?


    My manager had to leave the room he was laughing so hard.

    In the beginning- yes.
    In the end- no.

    How did you deal with that question ? Since the manager left you alone.

    I would have responded yes, and even more fun with a partner.

    Wow. I can't even...wow.

    I was bragging on my husband to a couple the other day, talking about how awesome he is and how he is "the total package". The husband of the couple waggled his eyebrows at me and asked "Well is it a LARGE package?"

    Ugh.....gag me.....

    I answered:

    I work with three women and one gay man, trust me if there are no patient's in the office before closing there is nothing sacred. I have often heard the doc yell from his room "I'm still here ya know!"

    So what kind of frame did she get? Was it a horny rimmed, um I mean horn rimmed frame?
    Or maybe one of those Pussy Galore frames (I'm not making that up, they do exist if you haven't already heard about them!)

    What do you expect in an industry where customers come in and ask for a screw.

    I expect to give them one, and do the job so well they never want to go to anyone else.

    We were having an office meeting one time and the staff was making fun of my higher-than-usual heels I had worn that day. We all give each other a hard time regularly, even the Drs, so when one of the OD's said "Them ain't heels, them's handles!" We all fell out laughing. All of a sudden he sat up straight and said, "Oh God, please don't sue me!" we laughed even harder after that!

    Some things I get a kick out of saying: "There's a nut loose behind your glasses." In response to: "how much for a screw?" "You know, it's illegal to charge for that, but I can do it for free." In response to "are you the obstetrician?" when coming from a pretty girl: "well, I DO have a chair in the back." When not coming from a pretty girl: "I don't have a hand in that."

    Patient's spouse is the one that usually says "He/She has a screw loose." I'm sorry, not much I can do about that, but I can adjust your glasses....Or Counseling sessions are on Mondays and Wednesdays.
