I'm terrified of doctors, so much so that I don't even have a "General Practitioner" or a "main doctor," you know, the kind that does physicals and writes recommendations. I've been meaning to get one for the longest time, but I keep putting it off because I'm terrified of doctors' offices waiting rooms-- I think it has something to do with the fact that I spent a great deal of my childhood in them, more so than even with the doctors themselves.
The thought of that uncomfortable late afternoon sun shining in the windows on those carpets that look like they were ripped out of the hallways of the sets from
The Shining, the hopelessly outdated magazines on the coffee tables covered in scratches and bitemarks from God knows what... the TV playing the same six infomercials over and over again, just the thought of it makes my muscles contract right now.
