A funny story

A few weeks ago I went to the hospital for a heart cath. Before the procedure I had to have my groin area prepped. Being I keep myself shaved, the male attendant didn't have much work to do. He proceeded doing a little cleanup but said nothing. After the procedure I was informed I would have to come back in a week to have stents installed. When I went back I again of course had to be prepped. The female nurse pulled out the razor to  shave me when she noticed I had already done the job. She snickered and said, I was about to say they did a nice prep on you last week but I guess after seeing no tan lines and an overall shave I guess I can only assume you enjoy a free lifestyle. Enjoy and good luck with your procedure.
