    I feel kind of bad now, I was not in a good spot at the time. I was at the proctologist and....well he was elbow deep. My sister and I had been goofing around and ....well you know the story. A gooseberry got wedged up in....well you know....way up in there. That in and of itself had me feeling a little....well you know. But it was in the same spot I got stabbed yesterday at the jack in the box. It’s kind of embarrassing but some bigger tough guys wanted my coffee...in hindsight (no pun intended) I probably should have acquiesced to their request but I was stubborn...and scared. Anyway dude stabbed me right in my rectal cavity and took my coffee to boot. It’s just not safe to walk the streets anymore. Anyway to make a short story even longer....I was uncomfortable and angry and took it out on you. My bad I will try and remain more composed during my next proctal examination. By the way I am 49, you would think I should no better by now...oh well live and learn!
