Did I Say Vagisil? I Meant Tylenol.

Yesterday I went to the doctor for an update on my high cholesterol situation (thanks Mom and Dad! And Chick-Fil-A!). When I got there, the nurse asked if I was still taking just the cholesterol medication and a daily vitamin. "Yep," I said. "I'm on both of those. Oh, and I started on Cialis last week." The nurse dutifully wrote this down.

Thirty minutes or so later when the doctor came in, the first thing he did was ask me about Cialis. "You said you've been on that for a week? Can I ask who prescribed that for you?"

I was for a moment confused about the line of questioning. "I got it over the counter. For my allergies."

"I'm pretty sure you mean Claratin. But you have to admit, the Cialis people have been pretty effective with their marketing."

Oh yeah. Claratin. That's the one for allergies, not 36-hour boners.

This is truly one of the most hilarious things you've ever told me. And you're pretty funny on a daily basis.

I am sure you can think of a million different things that could have been more embarassing, but I am sure your face was priceless when you realized what you had told him. That is really funny.
