number thirteen

just now. actually the other day. but i like starting with just now. so, the other day, i went to see the doctor. we greeted one another. he asked what was wrong with me. so on and so forth. he took my blood pressure, and then you know how doctors have to put this instrument into your ear to take your temperature? he was on his roller chair. he launched himself off from his desk and slid all the way to my right side. he reached out and held my earlobe, and as he did that, he gave me a bad static shock, through my little earlobe. we both felt it. and there even was that TARK sound. we both laughed. and then as nerdy a doctor as he was, he explained why it happened. ok. maybe not that stupid. but at that point in time, when i got a static shock through my earlobe, it was quite retarded.
