  • So it's no secret that I've been struggling lately. I had a patient tell me about a clinic in the building where I work that offers injections of the substance-that-shall-not-be-named. Anyway, you pair those injections with a 500 calorie diet and lose weight.

    Only it costs a lot of money. And I am as cheap as they come.

    But then I realized that, due to my profession, I have access to liters and liter of.....ummm....urine samples, provided by pregnant women. Those liters are chock-full of the hormone-that-must-not-be-named. And I totally know how to give injections!!!

    So, does anyone know how I can extract the hormone-which-must-not-be-named from pee so I can inject it and eat 500 calories and lose weight? I'm pretty desperate here......


















































    Seriously?
































    No.......



































    Happy April Fools Day, Peeps!!!
  • Hahaha, you got me! I was seriously concerned for you!
  • Yowsers, got me, too! I thought, HUH??
  • You had me.

    I was thinking wildly to myself: "Midwife has always seemed an intelligent, rational person ... not the type to tie off her arm & mainline pee through a hypodermic ... how on earth do I couch my reply in extremely diplomatic terms when what I really want to say is: 'What have you done with the real Midwife's brain?'"


  • You had me going for a minute too...i was like, is she insane??? haha Good April Fool's!!
  • I was all 'why would anyone want to inject pee into their arm!?'

    Ew!!

    Good one, Midwife! My first and only fool of the day!
  • Wow, you had me worried!
  • Didn't even know yesterday was April Fool's Day (not one we celebrate in this house). Think I should get my head out of my *ss and lighten up a bit.

    And you totally got me. My eyes got wider and wider as I read on thinking OMG what's gotten into her. Injecting pee? Really?
