A little, I don’t want to get “yelled at” for gaining so much weight, not sleeping well, not exercising, not having gotten the testing for the nodes on my thyroid done, and it’s almost always been a lot longer (sometimes years longer) since I was supposed to have gone in last

6. What do you think of hot dogs? I love cheese dogs. They’re mine. I hide them from the kids and give them the regular ones.

Or the time I dropped a can of the top shelf of the pantry onto my toe on Thanksgiving Day and when the doctor poked holes in it and it got infected? No, I know, the time I told the doctor I didn’t want an episiotomy and the tears got infected.
