Give me some good beer, conversation, friends, and music and there is little that will bother me. I try to treat others as I wish to be treated and when I don't, I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I believe most people are trustworthy until proven otherwise. I'm a conversational snob. I have little tolerance for stupidity or rudeness. Common courtesy is one of the best traits one can have. I believe there is conversation that is inappropriate for the dinner table. I love running into people I used to know, but am always happier if I look cute when it happens. I think there would be much less ruckus in the world if brunch were a daily offering.

Hot Young Doctors and Spring

I can't decide if OB/GYNs should be allowed to be young, handsome men. On one hand, you spend the first five minutes of your appointment (which can be uncomfortable to some, make that most, women) adjusting to the fact that a good looking man is about to examine you. On the other hand, I don't know what woman would prefer an unattractive man. Anyways, the doctor was great - he, the nurse and I discussed the finer points of scotch and Guinness and the exam was over before I knew it.

The cab ride back to the office was beautiful - the city is once again in bloom. My favorites are the trees that have magnolia-like flowers that appear to be painted porcelain. They start as a deep purply burgundy and slowly fade out to white at the tips of the petals. So pretty but I'm sure they're a pain in the arse to clean up. Today is the kind of day that you want to spend napping on a blanket in a park, soaking in the sun and watching squirrels play and people walk by.

    Your trip to the OB/GYN made me think about how I will one day in the not too distant future have to start getting the dreaded prostate exams. I really don't care whether the doctor is young and hot or old and homely as I won't be facing him anyway. I just have to make sure he doesn't have BOTH hands on my shoulders during the exam.
