I fear they are secretly despising me because I'm not fit and not my ideal weight. I have good reason for this. My mother is a doctor and when she was practicing she would often come home bitching about her fat patients. Actually she despised all her patients and continues to despise the human race in general, with particular contempt for those who are fat, and/or brown, and/or poor, and/or concerned about the environment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-11819348526377104332011-02-03T10:43:16.978-05:002011-02-03T10:43:16.978-05:00I'm with Amy - there's something unsettlin...I'm with Amy - there's something unsettling to me about a doctor who is too well groomed - as if they would run screaming from the room if there were blood or other messiness.
