I guess we're having all kinds of fun around here!

Good times...

OMG! I hope you guys feel better...

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Geesh... make sure they leave it in one piece so you can use it again!

Crap! My thoughts will be with you on Friday! Just make sure you are out for the putting in...and the "taking out" of the catheter..gives me the willies just thinking about it.

LOL.

Good luck and I mean that.

You may want to consider shaving yourself before you go in.

Unless you want to take your chances on who the barber is that day!

Thank God it's almost time to go home... I need to change shirts. Just spit my drink out all over myself.

Boooooooing

Well, good luck. But, word to the wise... they don't use clippers.

I remember going in for the snip and some Luther Vandross-looking dude walks toward me with a can or shaving cream and a razor. I told him not to even think that was going to f'in happen. Grabbed that sh1t out of his hands and ran to the bathroom.
