Maturity is not my forte

Today I had to spend 15 minutes talking to  a nurse at Holland Hospital in preparation for my surgery Thursday. Here are some of the highlights:

Nurse: Have you fallen lately?
Me: Fallen?
Nurse: Yes, fallen.
Me: Yes actually. The other day I fell in the cafeteria in front of a lot of high school students.
Nurse: Was this from feeling off balance or dizzy?
Me: No, just from overall clumsiness.
Nurse: Did you hurt anything?
Me: Just my pride...


Nurse: When was the start date of your last period?
Me: (Insert date here. You know you don't really want to know)
Nurse: Oh, so there's no way you're pregnant?
Me: (Insert loud laughter here) No!
*How single did that just make me sound....*


After all her questions, she asked if I had any. I did, "Does the hospital have wireless?"

Yes, I clearly have my priorities straight! The thought of surgery is not scary right now, but the thought of being without wireless for hours is!
