how claustrophobic I am

Next week I'm having an MRI. They'll stick me in a tube. I'll be sedated. "How claustrophobic are you?" they asked on the phone, and I didn't know how to rate it. 

Later I was talking about it with Ming. He said he is claustrophobic and I asked about elevators. He's not afraid of elevators. So I guess I'm worse. 

Yesterday we went to the mall. The workers were either really bored or thought I was going to steal half the store. It was Paper Source, one of my favorite stores, a stationery store. I got some octopus notecards among other things.
