I forgot to write about this when it happened but its been in my mind lately so I figured I'd mention it. It happened at work during labor day weekend. I was running the register while one of the girls was on break and this woman, her daughter and her husband came in to order. And she was like we have something in common and I bet you can't guess what it is. And I was like what do you mean. She was like you, me and my daughter all have something in common but you can't see it. So I was like really what's that? We all have PCOS. Now I already know this, I don't go around telling everyone I meet that I've got cysts on my ovaries. I guess I'm the odd one in this group then huh. Well anyway I was like yes I've got PCOS. Now I tweeze the hairs that come out on my chin. When I get really busy like labor day weekend I don't have time to deal with it so I just said screw it I'll get it when the weekend is over. So that's what she noticed. That's not what struck me as odd. It was her excitement, she was high fiving me and her daughter was just talking away about how its not really her fault she's overweight and broad like a boy. Here I am standing there looking totally bewildered not even sure what to say and they're welcoming me into their club and doing fist bumps and everything. Is this normal? I guess its a good way to be empowered and everything, its just a really good way to make a person uncomfortable. So then everyone at work is asking me about it. Who were those people, why were they acting so crazy? So yeah that's my comfortable moment of last month and I thought I'd share it with you. Mostly because I'm still thinking about it.
