"I'm so pissed. I paid $80 for this eyelash treatment, and it looks like I'm being attacked by tarantulas."
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

I find that attractive.
next time she shouldn't order the "attacking trantula" eyelash treatment.
Huh, sure didn't work that way for me. :-( (notice there are no eyelashes...or eyebrows for that matter!)
Peter Parker---snort.
So did you happen to get a glance at the phenom???
Seriously, Dr. G. I've seen female folks that sport that 'Raggedy Ann' look without any $80 treatment fee. Though, they must use up at least $25 worth of tarantula mascara to effect it! But, someone in the healthcare service industry might be accused of trying to frighten a patient... wearing spider lashes.
"For that much, I expect to look like I'm being attacked by wolverines."
"And not in a good way."
I'm sorry, but the hell could you possibly do to eyelashes that cost $80?
"Oh, wait, I AM being attacked by tarantulas. Silly me."
Aw, Grumpy! Maybe you should start selling that eyelash thing at your place.
Eyes are in your head, you're a neurologist...easy peasy.
Way better than vitamins! But of course the tarantula comment will not help you get new business. Wolverine might...
I'm with Officer C. Would that I HAD $80 for eyelashes. Or makeup (which I would certainly NOT be wearing at work). Or new nursing shoes. WTH?
Hahaha, that's the best analogy I've heard all week.
