You know, I only get a break like this once every three to five years.

NURSE PRACTITIONER (warming speculum under faucet): So, three children, huh. Who’s taking care of them for you this morning?

ME (on my back with my feet in the stirrups): Um, my husband stayed home from work this morning.

NURSE PRACTITIONER (cheerfully): Well! Lucky you! (rolling chair over between my ankles and adjusting lamp) Sounds like you’re getting a nice break today!
