how far along am i?...apparently about 25lbs. too much!

so i've been down for the count this week...turns out i have a kidney infection...

while being diagnosed and treated today, the nurse comes in and says

"so you're pregnant right?"

"um, noooo...not unless my urine sample yielded something i don't know"

"oh, no...we didn't do a test, i just thought, um,..."

she futzes with me quickly then leaves...

the doctor comes in takes one look at me and says

"so how far along are you?"

"um, i'm not pregnant...the nurse must have misinformed you"

he's blushing and starts speaking really fast...

"oh, well i didn't talk to the nurse...it's just...well now, how long have you had these particular symptoms?"

suddenly he's all business and won't look at me...

there's something very wrong here and i think it has a lot to do with my big fat ass...

so now i'm doped up on the high dollar antibiotics and some beefed up ibuprofen...

the second i can actually stand up all the way straight and pee without shouting out in sheer crippling pain that doctor and nurse are forgiven...

in the meantime, perhaps i oughta think about ramping up the old excercise routine...
