women's health
Today I had a doctor's appointment for 1:50 and was seen at 4:30. It was an experience in perseverance. I kept repeating to myself, "But it's free." The kicker was when the person with the 3:00 appointment was called in ahead of me. I wrote a complaint letter in my head to amuse myself. But it's free. This place does abortions, and there are three waiting rooms. The first two are uncomfortable, and the last one's nice. (The whole experience is like a weird dream.)

I hope the appointment itself was OK after the long wait.
I could imagine a poem called "But It's Free."

Thanks for your good wishes. Women's health exams are just about my least favorite thing in the world, which is why I went six years without one. But it didn't hurt, and I was very brave.

I'm glad to hear it went well. I have a hard time with those exams, too.
