Keeps on jamming. I might have to start making photocopies of body parts to scare it into submission!

Can I tell you something funny about body parts to brighten your day?
When I got burned two weeks ago, I had to "take a bath" while the male nurse and my husband watched. Actually, I was taken in that bathroom on the pretence of showing me and my husband how to change my bandages. The male nurse (he must have been new, becuase he fidgited a lot) anyway, he gets in there, I am sitting on the chair for old people who can't stand in the shower and have my backless gown on. The male nurse proceeds to put on all this garb including a face shield. Now, I'm thinking, what are you protecting your face for? What exactly do you think is going to come flying out of me that might splatter onto your face? Anyway I guess I thought I was going to take my little sponge bath myself and then we could do the bandage thing. After all, I have to lift things up and wash under them. Mind you I have had three kids and many people have seen this body, as flabby and unatractive as it may be, and I really don't think I have much modesty left, but this bothered me. OF course they turned away, while I sat there mortified, lifting my ta-tas up to wash under them. After I was done, I asked if I could dry off and put my gown back on, and he said, no, we are going to change your bandages now. Now, I am thinking, why do I need to sit here naked so you can change my bandages? The burns were on my LOWER legs and my LOWER arms and face. Anyone who has ever worn one of those hospital gowns knows that they cover at least the other areas, and I was sitting down, so the bum was covered. At least when you go to the gyno you get a paper towel to cover up with. This was rediculous. Someone should have told him that 40 year old flabby women don't like to take a shower or bath with an audience unless they are a famous porn star with great attributes. Anyway he finally felt sorry for me and handed me a towel so I wasn't flapping in the breeze. As I look back on it now, In a different frame of mind I might have liked getting naked in front of a 20 something doctor wanna be....mabe with a few glasses of wine...
Still not sure what that face shield was for.

I can ALWAYS find the jam in a photocopier. Call it a sixth sense, I don't know, but I Feel where it is Stuck.
Maybe it has something to do with using these machines for ...um 20 years or so??
When in doubt, kick it, turn off the power at the mains, and place a sign on the machine saying, "service called" - but don't sign or date it.

took my money but would not spit out the forbidden chocolate I was trying to buy. So I spat back, then I kicked it, then I pulled my tongue out at it. But it didn't appreciate my attitude so kept the chocolate and the change!
