I debated about sharing the story of my day on January 22, 2009 at 3:15pm with you, but what the heck- all you ladies will be able to relate.
Let's go back to December 25, 2008. I received these socks from my daughter. At the top of the socks they say Good Karma and on the bottom...well you see, they have smiley faces.
On Thursday morning after I took my shower and in anticipation of my annual pap smear; I was so excited when I put these on.
I came up with the idea the night before, knowing that it must be somewhat of an unfullfilling duty that my obgyn does each day.
Imagine if you can...I'm on the table, stripped down with nothing on but a sheet and my socks...feet in the stirrups...my doctor talking about the upcoming examination and then..." Oh Leslie, I just noticed your socks...haha".
That's when I told her about my decision the night before...that I had thought about her job, the view she has and wearing my socks.
She had a big smile on her face and said that noone had ever done that before. She got a big kick out of it, and so did I. It made the exam all the better!

I'm sure she will remember this for ever. How funny!
That was great Leslie. You and all your socks..
What a funny little story, Leslie. Humor always lightens any situation, especially somewhat awkward ones. I love your socks.
Have a great day!
Hugs,

Cute idea!! My doctor has colourful oven mitts on her stirrups so our feet don't have to touch the cold metal:))
What a great sense of humor you have. I'm sure your doc loved it too. As you know, I'm a lover of funky socks too.
Have a great day!
~hippo hugs~
Very funny story. Thanks for sharing.
One of the tests I go for (can't remember which one - getting old, I guess)The lady has lots of floating fish on the ceiling. After all that is what you look at. Keeps your mind on more pleasant things.
~Always thinking about others~& how to brighten their day~
~That's my friend~

Has any one said this yet, "Laughter is the best medicine"?!! Good for you Leslie!

Hi Leslie! not sure what I admire more, your sense of humor or your amazing planning abilities in remembering to wear WARM socks in anticipation of those darn stirrups... ; )
Hi Leslie *waving paws from Texas* thanks for visiting my blog. So cool to hear from you. I know what you mean about workin all day and then trying to find the energy to paint at night!!! My studio assistants are such taskmasters, otherwise I'd never get anything done.
xxooo
Just dropping by to say Hello. I'm new to Blogging Women. If you like plants and gardening stuff, please visit when you have a moment.
That is GREAT!!! I can just picture it!
(btw...I wandered over here from Pam's blog. I had to check your blog out!)
Okay, funny, funny...
I had to comment one more time, because the verification word I had last time was "overdoc." I thought that was sorta appropriate for your post. LOL
That is a funny story. Makes for a relaxed visit.
That's funny. Socks are cute btw. Thanks for your comment on my blog. :)
Doctors are people too. I love the idea of surprising yours with these cute socks.
I'm back for more smiles! I've left you something on my blog, Leslie. Stop by when you have a minute.
All the best,
Catherine
Good on you Leslie...gives us all something to think about...what will the Dr say??? Love to you, Dzintra xx
brilliant idea
My doctor is 80 years old now. All his patients have made it clear that we won't allow him to retire. He has the best sense of humor and he would be crazy for these socks. How cute!
I'm visiting via the Worldwide Bloggers United group, that I just joined this week. Your blog is lovely and I do believe I will return!
I love it!!! LMAO
Lol! i did that for my op... Wrote "MeRRy Christmas" on ma otha bOOb! X:-) Well... somebody's gotta give 'em something to smile about X:-)
(Ps) Had a friend of a friend that accidentally sprayed hair spray *sparkles* 'down there' before an annual pap smear... (Thinking it was perfume!) Was fuNNy when the doc commented "Very nice!" & she had no idea (until she got home) what he was talking about! Lol!
