Schmear

Just casually, did my first pap smear today. Can't shut up about it because it was so exciting. The vagina is a magical place.

Except now I keep thinking about it and every time I do, I cross my legs involuntarily. I suffer from some extreme intrusive thoughts (such as my recurring fear of falling face first into the brain buckets of last year's anatomy labs) and, whilst I was bent over this poor woman's vagina, I remember wondering what would happen if I accidentally sneezed right at that moment. And for a more extreme intrusive thought, whilst I was inserting the speculum, I wondered what would happen if I accidentally tripped and inserted a bit too far in.
