So my doctor said you're over 40, your family history sucks, go see a cardiologist and get a stress test just to make sure there's nothing lurking. No all that worried about it as I do keep myself in good shape, but decided to follow through with it.
First mistake, I looked at my arm when they put the IV needle in, BOOM! passed out right there in the chair. I have no problem with blood or needles when it's somebody else's, when it's mine it's an entirely different story. So now I've already got a reputation with all of the med techs in the office.
Well one of the techs was a short little brassy blonde with a southern drawl and a crude sense of humor. Needless to say, we got along fine. We went back and forth the whole time cracking jokes with each other. But she definately got the last laugh.
Before getting on the treadmill she had to prep me and attach the heart montitor's sensors to my chest. What's the prep? Using little disposable razors to shave any chest hair and exfolliating the region where the sensors attach. I'm a guy, I've got chest hair, but thankfully I'm not a human Chia Pet or a missing link.
So I get home this afternoon and go to take a shower to wash off the sweat from the treadmill and the sticky stuff from the sensors. I get out of the shower, look in the mirror and what do I see? A damn Mickey Mouse head with ears! Yep that's right, she shaved my chest hair to be the perfect representation of the mouse head. No it's not a coincidence, there were only 2 sensors there, not 3.
I can hardly wait to hear what the wife has to say tonight...
