I am a perfectionist and have always had an utter disdain for failure. This has kept me from trying a lot of things in my life. Having finally accepted that failure is a requirement for a fulfilling and diversified life experience, I have created this year long project in an attempt to become comfortable with the idea of failing. This blog chronicles my journey with failure.

Day 248: A Colcoscopy
This post is about women body parts stuff. If you don't want to read it, then by all means, skip this entry. But basically, that thing in this picture--yeah, it doesn't go in your ear . . . .
I had to have a colcoscopy done today after receiving an abnormal pap smear result at the end of July. I had no freakin' idea what to expect. None.
Long story short, I didn't cry. I was really proud of myself! I didn't cry out of pain (although it certainly wasn't pleasant). And I had a male examiner, and usually when a male doctor examines me, I start crying. (Seriously.) So therefore, I make sure never to sign up with a male doctor for female stuff. But in this case, I didn't really have a choice because there's only a doctor at this location once a month.
So anyways, I didn't really fail today. In fact, I think I succeeded rather well. Yay for not crying!
