TOPIC: Urologist Holiday Present

I am giving a gift basket to his front office, but I wanted to give him a present for fixing my multiple complex disasters this year. I got him a \"real\" gift from Cross, but I thought this was pretty funny. Do you think he\'ll get the joke...? Is it even funny or am I just strange? I didn\'t want to get something over-the-top that was penis-related. But this seemed to fit.

I think he\'ll just think it\'s a regular gift. If you hadn\'t said it was meant to be funny, I think I would have just thought you\'d decided to buy him a puzzle as that\'s just the kind of stuff people buy each other for Christmas, like buying him Monopoly.

You do have Monopoly in America right?

Haha yeah we have monopoly. He has a good sense of humor though...he might get it. Since I was awake during the procedures, he\'s just funny how he talks to the resident - and then at the end is like \"ok get the mesh panties!\" which is just this gauze underwear they put on you to hold all the bandages in. That\'s when he said \"in a few weeks you\'ll be all set to go back to tijuana\". That might have been some snark on his part, but he\'s pretty amusing...especially for a surgeon.

I\'m probably being embarrassingly stupid here, but, to be honest, I\'m not sure I get it. Is it because the puzzle is shaped kind of like a penis and fixing your penis was a puzzle?

Yeah. That\'s all it was. That\'s why I underlined \"put the keg back together\". I don\'t know if it\'s just not funny or if it\'s not coming across. Anyway, I have a more serious discussion to have with him that day cuz it\'s just looking weird and the nodules are sticking out more and more with the skin being uneven. I don\'t know if he can fix or what. It\'s in such an odd shape, I broke 4 condoms...never did that before in my life.

Okay, so now I do find it funny, but because it\'s not funny. But he\'s not going to know that it\'s funny because it\'s not funny. He\'s just going to think it\'s like being given Monopoly. In which case I think you should just buy him Monopoly, as it\'s an absolutely brilliant game and the puzzle looks like the kind of thing I\'d stick in a draw and forget about.

>But he\'s not going to know that it\'s funny because it\'s not funny.

Ugh, great! I was in the store for like 1 hour picking out things for people (lower budget things for people I don\'t see much but just to be nice) and thought this was funny.

Smalljay, I don\'t think I can go back to Avanti Derma since I didn\'t leave this situation on the best terms. It\'s probably not a good idea, either - since my doc won\'t fix anything if anything goes wrong. The time and expense of going back there repeatedly is also prohibitive to an extent. I don\'t know.

Well, I think he got the joke... his PA got the joke. Anyway, even if I wanted - he won\'t do more surgery on these areas. There is a big Nodule on the lower left that sticks out a lot when Erect, but he doesn\'t want to go in there any more. The last two times were basically favors. I\'m updating the journal with what I am talking about.

Ok I updated the pics. You can see here.

I bet he would have agreed to do it had you bought him Monopoly instead.

Of course we have Monopoly in America. Those properties are named after famous East Coast streets . . .

Only in the American edition! Whatever country the game is sold in, the properties will be named after places in that country.
