First of all, I want to say that I had so many ideas for a title for this post bouncing through my crack squirrel-infested cranium that the squirrels went nuts, gave up, and let me proceed on my own… Feel free to chime in with any of your ideas for a good title.
Secondly, there is an added layer of ironic humor attached to this post, due to the fact that there is an alien character in my action/humor science fiction novel series who has his junk… and I mean a lot of junk… growing out of the top of his head… just sayin’…
So, you might recall that I recently enjoyed the privilege of having my first kidney stone… and was on good pain medication for a week or so. This morning, I had a follow up appointment with a urology doctor. I went in to the office, sat in a chair, answered the nurses questions, and then waited for the doctor to arrive. I recalled seeing a poster on the wall above the chair, but I hadn’t really looked at it. So… I turned in my chair and looked up…
And here is what I saw…
So, it wasn’t just a cut-away view of a penis… it was a diseased penis… with detailed and well-painted scenes of everything that can go wrong with the human urinary tract. Oh yeah!
So there I sat, with a disease-infested penis poking me… figuratively speaking… on the top of my noggin. Needless to say, I thought this was the funniest thing ever. Not only did I grab my phone to take some pictures, but when the doctor came in, I told her that if she had had the poster placed there on purpose, her sense of humor left me in awe.
I am not sure if she was as amused as I was…
But she finished up my visit with a free… and unexpected… prostate exam… so I guess she had the last laugh… maybe…
And I’m fine back there, or down there, just so you know.
