Dont be cONcerned.. BUT I might have BrAin DamAge..


Today me and my ma drove up to the city to take Shannon to her last prenatal visit before the birth of lil Jilly... Frank-lynn needed to attend a super duper special Nasa meeting.. and we were more then happy to take Shan to her appointment. Lil Jilly is a few days late and everyone is very excited to finally meet her.. Her Ob/Gyn said she was ripe and the big mysterious plug was gone.. (I was completely grossed out at this point and started to hum to myself.. so I am not sure what else we learned).. We then headed over to the hospital for a stress test. The good people at California Pacific Hospital check to make sure there isn't a problem before one develops .. strange concept huh, Kaiser??.. ANYWAYS.. They looked in her tummy with the ultrasound machine.. and lil Jilly flashed her cooter at us.. She is apparently a little flamboyant.. Then they strapped on a heart beat monitor.. and some other dooo hickey that measures her movement and Shannon's contractions.. Everything looked great.. Jilly is just being stubborn..(I wonder where she gets that??) After they unhooked Shannon from all the machines, she stopped in the bathroom for her hourly pee break.. While Me and My Ma were alone in the exam room.. I took the little wand that they put on my sis's belly.. and placed it on my heart.. WOW!!!
What a fabulous ticker I have.. Powerful .. kick ass heart.. I guess I should have stopped there, because I placed the thing on my head.. I am not sure what I was expecting to see.. but the screen was blank..the machine made little pulsating noises.. and I am convinced that it might have tazzed some of my brain cells.. Does anyone have any research on this.. I would have asked the nurse, but then I would have had to admit doing it in the first place.. and I wasn't looking for a stern talking to... Woe is me..
