viagra

i have known my husband for over 20 years now.
i am pretty sure that in those 20 years, i have never seen the man
blush once. about anything. ever.
you should know that one of the "perks" of his new job is free
lunch. everyday. monday through friday. without fail.
why? free lunch every day...you ask.
drug rep's.
they are booked 3 months out. all year long.
they come and peddle their pharmaceutical wares to the doctors
in the office during lunch hour. drug reps also bring lunch in everyday
for the whole office (the ONE RULE is that the lunch must be "healthy.")
then kyle, and the doctors, sit and eat and listen.
last week kyle told me the viagra reps were there.
they brought cafe rio. i was the recipient of one extra
grilled chicken salad that day.
(another perk of said new job is its 2 minute
proximity from home.)
while kyle was explaining the viagra guys spiel, he blushed.
he giggled.
he couldn't finish the story.
it involved something about a big poster kind of board.
with "samples" on it. so you could show your doctor
about your particular lack of "working order" should
you be in dire need of the drug viagra.
and if you want any further explanation, you'll have to ask kyle.
although, i'm not sure he'll be any better at explaining than i was.
viagra anyone?
POST EDIT: i neglected to mention that the display poster board was a "hands on", 3D, "touchy-feely-show-the-Doctor-what-I'm-talking-about" poster board. it displayed various stages of, should i say, "disfunction?"
Now do you see the reason for the blush, perhaps?

That's too funny! Our bestest friend is a Family Practice doc and was Brandon's 1st councelor when he was the EQ pres. He used to bring in his pens that he'd get from the pharma reps to church meetings for taking notes. He's sometime even loan them out to those that forgot pens. Without knowing he always seemed to grab the ones advertising the embarassing drugs. He he.

I've been wondering how things were going for you guys! I'm so happy for you!
