When faced with such options

Today I made an impromptu visit to my MD. Upon arriving at the doctor’s office, I realized that I forgot reading material. What you need understand is my doctors’ office reading either caters to the over achieving male whom may be experiencing a mid life crisis for reasons of his insanely boring hobbies. Or my poor doctor fell prey to Ed McMahon’s diabolical sweepstakes scam and was forced to buy endless copies of fishing, golf, and Fortune magazine. Just when I was about to give up hope, I spied a tattered copy of Ladies Home Journal resting on an equally worn Seventeen. When faced with the option of Sally Fields and tips to “Walk off extra weight” or the vapid preteen model and hot quizzes like “How to tell if he will drop you when he goes to college” I choose the most honest of the two…..Seventeen of course, at least it’s not trying to be “reading material” Besides who needs to be depressed by fashion tips from ladies in high waist jeans with their quick dinner tips it’s already sad enough to be spending your afternoon in a doctors office.
