Had to go to the doctor today to get some things checked out - nothing to worry about - but was sitting in the Sloan Kettering office in the same exact room where I had to get ready for my first mammogram... at 26.
It brought back memories today because before going in for my exam, the nurse asked for me to undress and put on a gown.
Remembering my time at 26 in this office, I remember it was the summer. I didn't have socks to wear and had to wear my shoes. Well, like I said, it was summer - so I wasn't wearing sneakers or even regular ballerina shoes. I was coming from work in advertising and was wearing patent leather 4" red ruby heels! So picture me sitting in the waiting room with a gown and high red heels on!
So I'm sitting in the dressing room waiting for the nurse, and this young guy - dorky cute - comes in and looks at me and gets all red in the face! He starting talking, but stuttering all over the place. He then had to ask me to take down my robe so he could put these stickers on my boobs -- he was so nervous he left the door open!
I said, "You think we can shut the door?" He's like "Oh, gosh yes, sorry!!"
It made me feel pretty good... Even sexy for that matter - that he thought I was hot! Now that's Fighting Pretty!
