Making A Buy

So over the last 2 years …

I’ve been getting my prescriptions from the farmacy a few blocks from my house …

After becoming tired of driving back and forth to Ann Arbor for six months to fill my scripts all out of the concern for confidentiality.

Now seriously …

A guy filling a script for himself consisting of 8 mgs of Estradiol tablets, 200 mgs of spironolactone and 5 mgs of Proscar daily clearly has to be a pre-op transsexual even to the greenest of certified pharmacy technicians,

But yet …

Not once was my prescription ever mentioned.

Which was kewl.

So it was such,

That everytime I picked up a script,

I was on my way home from work …

And always all suit and tie.

Add that I tend to be a bit of a social person with store clerks,

So everyone behind the counter there knew my name …

I had my favorite pharmacist,

And my two favorite techs.

Such that when I went full-time,

Even though everyone clearly knew my function despite it now being mentioned,

Just to not have to deal with any reaction of sort,

I did think briefly about switching pharmacies …

Since there is a Walgreen’s every 2.3 miles in any direction.

Walgreen’s … The New 7-11.

But I quickly dismissed that line of thought since it required, well …

I’m guessing some extra effort on my part …

Probably clicking on a different button when I re-filled my prescription on-line or something exhausting like that !! 🙂

Besides,

I actually became kinda curious as to the reaction I’d get when I finally started showing up as Amy-wan.

Well, last month apparently it was vacation month at the pharmacy …

And all the regulars were not there.

Then by yesterday when I went into get my fix …

I totally forgot I had never been in there before as me.

My scripts are still in Joe’s name …

So I walked up to the counter and there were to of my favoritie three …

Hin and Kindra,

Tim was the only one missing.

“Here to pick up a prescription for Hairdy.”

Kindra didn’t even blink an eye,

Though there was a bit of a smile,

And her and I chatted it up like we always do.

Hin on the other hand, had to refill my prescription because I hadn’t picked it up in time before they put it back on the shelf.

Then when Hin brought me the goods,

After checking me out …

She leaved forward to the counter, smiled and said …

“You look sooooooo good !”

Wasn’t that nice of her to do ?!?!?!

I’m marking that down as a kick-ass, kewl reaction ! 🙂
