  • I went to the doctor today. It was fun! I like having fun with my doctors. Why should a visit to the doctor be boring and annoying?


     


    Yes, I am healthy. Very healthy. LOL


    Doc: Hello, I see you're a new patient of mine. I usually ask a few questions so we can get to know each other.


    Me: Oh...questions. Cool.


    Doc: Yeah, so are you allergic to anything?


    Me: Nope.


    Doc: Are you on any medications?


    Me: Nope but a couple of people I know would probably suggest you put me on something.


    Doc: (laughs) Do you smoke?


    Me: Yes. I do. I am in distress.


    Doc: Well, you're very healthy but I would suggest you quit smoking. Whenever you're ready. If you feel like quitting, there are over-the-counter aids and your insurance can reimburse you for it.


    Me: Oh well my sorority sisters do the voice box imitation thing all the time.


    Doc: I guess (laughs) I don't have to give you a lecture then. It's up to you when you want to quit.


    Me: I know. I'll let you know when I'm up for the challenge.


    Doc: Are you sure there's nothing bothering you?


    Me: Nope, I'm good. Although, my mom told me to tell you to yell at me about being overweight.


    Doc: You're not that overweight. If your metabolism is a bit slow then it's slow. I'll just give you whatever tests you need and when I check your thyroid, I'll let you know.


    Me: Okay cool. I think I gain weight from school. I smoke because I'm stressed out.


    Doc: Do you drink?


    Me: Yes. Occasionally.


    Doc: Occasionally? How often are there occasions?


    Me: Pretty often I'd say.


    Doc: My doctor asked me how often I drink and I said on occasion and then I was thinking is that a trick question.


    Me: No surprises here. I drink for every occasion I can find an excuse for.


    Doc: Well you're very young.


    Me: Yeah, I'll be drinking in six months after I graduate.


    Doc: Oh, you're a smart one. I'm so surprised that you're advanced.


    Me: Eh, it's nothing.


    Doc: I'm proud of you. You should be proud of yourself.


    Me: Yeah, I have to get a job.


    Doc: What kind of job are you looking for?


    Me: I don't know.


    Doc: What are you studying?


    Me: History.


    Doc: Oh I see.


    Me: It's okay. I go to Baruch.


    Doc: (laughs) I'm sure you'll find something.


    Me: I hope so or I may be drinking more than just occasionally.


    Doc: (laughs) You're the easiest patient I've had all day.


    Me: Well, I waited a long time.


    Doc: I'm so sorry about that.


    Me: It's okay.


    Doc: Well, it was a pleasure meeting you (laughs) and I wish you lots of luck!


    Me: Same here. Have a great day! (laughs and skips out of doctor's office)

    And that was my trip to the doctor.
