Sexy Link: Tom is a friend of yours?

I'm a news and information junkie. I can't help it. If I'm on CNN.com once a day, I'm there 10 times day. I just want to make sure that I know if something big happens. And while I'm there, I read up on some pretty stupid shit. I've always said that I'm the one to have on your team if the local bar suddenly breaks out into trivia-for-drinks mode.

This is an excerpt from CNN.com's Health section:

(Health.com) -- AWOL tampons, gas, losing your breakfast on the doc? To prove that you are so not alone when it comes to mortifying health mishaps, Health readers shared some of their stories with us. And our own medical editor, Roshini Rajapaksa, MD, weighs in on when you really do need to talk to your doctor about an embarrassing episode or symptom.

R-rated undies

My husband and I were celebrating our five-year anniversary the same day I had to go to the doctor for a general checkup. Since I was going immediately to our date after my appointment, I dressed accordingly, meaning sexy dress and even-sexier panties.

I didn't realize that the doctor was going to do a full-body mole check and ask me to strip down to my bra and underwear (with a robe), and I immediately regretted wearing the G-string I had personalized to say "Happy anniversary, Tom. Your present is underneath."

I hoped the doctor wouldn't see it, but halfway through the screening, he said, "I take it Tom is a friend of yours?" I wanted to die. --Jocelyn, Boston, Massachusetts

I don't know about you, but my mom only told me what to wear in case of an accident. She never mentioned full-body mole checks.

Fondly yours,
