. . . i want a second opinion . . .

. . . this is dr. michael wolff . . .
. . . bill is his patient . . .
. . . has been for four and a half years now . . .
. . . he's received multiple recognitions
as a top doc in phoenix . . .

. . . the scene: his office . . .
. . . dr. wolff {to me as we were leaving}:
"nice purse ~ reminds me
of one of those strings of dried red chilis
. . . {pause} . . .
we're way too comfortable with each other" . . .

{the purse ~ taipan trading co. ~ ranco cucamonga, CA ~ ca. september 2010}

{the chilis ~ santa fe, NM}


. . . the scene: 10 days later ~
scottsdale ambulatory surgical center ~ . . .
. . . surgery center nurse
{to me walking into the recovery room to pick up bill}:
"i love your purse. it's so festive.
it reminds me
of those strings of dried red chilis" . . .

. . . i guess that settles it . . .

That is hilarious, but I have to say I never would have thought that. Cute purse! I love red. P.S. How did the procedure go? Hoping for the best best best.

That's too funny! I never would have thought of that...I just think it's a really cute ruffly (sp or is it even a real word ?!!) red, purse. Red Chilies? not so much! Feliz Navidad! PS. I love the snow!

Um, if you are feeling self-conscious about your purse now, I will be a willing taker of it! Red chilis nothing, it's hot!
