Pathology Report from Day 3
I had my old medical records sent to me awhile ago. They'd been scanned and put on a CD so I just printed them out today and was reading through them. I came across one that sounded cool. It was a pathology report from when I was 3 days old.
SPECIMEN: Preauricular skin tags
GROSS: Two pieces of tissue, one a skin-covered lobulated mass about 12mm in greatest dimension. The other is smaller. The entire specimen is embedded in 1 block.
MICROSCOPIC: Section shows normal skin, subcutaneous tissue and pieces of cartilage.
DIAGNOSIS: ACCESSORY EARS.
Yes, you read that right. I had an "accessory ear" that they removed. My mom didn't even tell me about it until I was 13, and it came out because she was talking to my orthodontist about my jaw assymetry. I think it's a cool story.

To share something like that you have to be the most self-confident, secure woman ever. Much props to you. You deserve to have good-looking foreigners offer you free lotion samples.
Now that I think of it, most women are probably born with three ears... That would explain why women are better listeners.
No way!! That is AMAZING!!! Love it!
Very "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"-ish
I had the b'b'bopsy and I found out it was... my twin.
Wow... Something to think about. What if things happened differently, and you did end up with a twin... I wonder how similar or different she'd be from you? Would you be best buds? You couldn't be as much of an independent free-spirit if you had an identical twin. It's against the twin code.
