Went to the doctor's office today where I had the following conversation:
DR: Do you drink alcohol?
Me: Yes please.
DR: How much would you say?
Me: Well, generally not much, maybe one glass of wine a week, but in the past couple of weeks, roughly all the wine in California. I guess over a lifetime that would average out to 'moderate'.
DR: Mmm hmm. And are you on any prescription medicines?
Me: Birth control
DR: And are you sexually active?
Me: Not at the moment.
DR: Why then are you on the pill?
Me: Hope?
Not a smile. The man just wrote something on his little pad of paper and nodded. I believe what he wrote is 'poor girl, perhaps she needs a drink'. At least that's what I hope. That or he was just doodling the sentence 'I'm awesome' over and over again. As that's what I would do had I actually gone through with medical school.
