Me and/or God

Good news! I talked to my doctor('s secretary) yesterday and she said they talked to Dr. Fabulous and Charlie's procedure has been moved up an entire month! He is going in on April 13th. I am scheduled for blood testing/vagina mapping on March 25th and we have to go to IVF school on April 1st. The mapping still seems strange. It just doesn't seem that complicated. It's not like they're going to insert the catheter into my vagina, take a wrong turn and end up in my lungs. I wonder if the doctors call themselves the Lewis and Clark of vagina...or the Magellans of the female reproductive system. If I were them, I would. The world should be very glad I'm not a doctor- I would absolutely have the most out of control ego. My doctor says things like, "I have a really cool job and I get to help a lot of people." If I was a baby doctor, I would be more likely to say things to my patients like, "Who can give you a baby? Me and/or God, that's who, so you might want to bring a chocolate cake to your next appointment and do a little praying in your spare time."
I don't know what to think about IVF school. It's actually a one day class/training about reproductive issues. It's not really called IVF school, either, except in my head. It's not just about IVF, and anyone who gets reproductive assistance at our particular hospital has to go through it. My boss went through some reproductive stuff and she attended the class. She said mostly what she remembers is what a terribly sad and desperate group of people were in the class. I guess I should probably watch my mouth. I can be a little crass sometimes and tend to joke a lot when I get uncomfortable or when something is absurd.....I bet they won't let us have a baby if I drop 15 f-bombs or get into some kind of verbal altercation because I can't resist vagina map jokes. Maybe Charlie should go by himself and just take detailed notes...
