lol @ Tasha

I was one of those women who had never had a Pap Smear -- it had been mentioned in terms of -- yeah you need to do one, but I was 29 years old before finally a Dr said.... I can do it now if you want.... no, yes, no, yes.... okay....

If I only knew the number of times I would have to expose myself to strangers - The... OMG I just HAVE to see a female Dr... would be laughed at now... 5 years later - I really don't care anymore - it feels weird.... and seems like I should be SO uncomfortable, but I don't think I am anymore. still... the 10 years I put the pap smear off now seems so funny.

I'm sure at 23 I would have been shocked at all the invasiveness of it all... I was still a student and lived at home until I was 26.... all of this was SO far into my future... if only I'd known it would be so hard....
