Ok I know how some of you will answer that question and I will concede that no I am not normal. That is a trait I am extremely proud of. The reason I am asking is because my sister said I wasn't normal (I know that is a common opinion if many sisters about their brothers and vice versa) because I am currently in the hospital to have possibly two stents put into the arteries in my heart and I am not worried or concerned or worried about the procedure. I was also this way when I had open heart surgery three years ago and when I had a craniotomy. A little over a month ago. I just consented to all three operations and never gave them another thought. <br>
So I ask you does that make me weird?<br>
