Chi-uh-oh!

a short story about a spinal adjustment.

This one time I went to the chiropractor, and he was like the “cool” chiropractor.  His wife was a Rockett, he used slang, and he brought his Pug to office–-he was cool. 

Well, before I went to see my “cool chiropractor” I had read this beauty magazine that lead me to put chapsick on my eyebrows.  As everyone knows, you lie face down on that chiropractor table with the roll of fresh paper the consistency of those disposable public toilet seat covers.  Well, after my adjustment, I stood up and there were 2 giant grease marks where my eyebrows had been.  It was a really unexpected embarrassment that I wish I could have explained, but the whole thing was a little too bizarre.  Then again, maybe he would have understood.  He was that sort of “understanding, cool chiropractor.”  I bet I’m not the first person to put chapstick on my eyebrows before going in for a spinal adjustment.

Haha, why on earth would the article tell you to put chap stick on your eyebrows? I like embarrassing, awkward moments and if this was built up a little more it could be as awkward as a toot in church.
