Gall Bladder 5 - Erin 0

I am on a quest to rid my body of all aggravating and unnecessary organs. Next up - the gall bladder (aka, bane of my existence!)

After numerous excruciatingly painful gall bladder attacks, one trip to the ER, one ultrasound, quite a few percoset, and a lot of complaining from me I can't wait to have this ridiculous organ removed. Fortunately, I only have to wait about a month after the birth of the baby and then back to the hospital I go for the surgery.

I did ask the doctor if I was allowed to stamp on the offending organ after it was removed. I was told I would have to ask the actual surgeon about that. I just want to make sure it is really dead and that there is NO chance of it ending up sneaking back into my body in the middle of the night.

After dealing with the offending organ for the last couple of months, I am ready to have all other unused and potentially hazardous bits removed from my body. I say, while they're in there go ahead and pop out the tonsils and the appendix as well.

Anybody know of anything else in there just taking up space? Let me know and I'll add it to my list!

I think the little toe is on its way out too...it keeps getting smaller and smaller through the generations. I'd have them take those as well!
