learning about each other

so i'm totally loving one of the practices where i'm working. this is largely due to the two medical assistants i chill with all day when my doctor needs "to get his head on straight" and wants to be alone. they are gorgeous, silly, smart, and laid-back. anyone who meets them wants to be their best friend, and they have a lot of best friends. needless to say, i don't really know all that much about them. like today when i learned one of them had been treated at MCV for a stab wound. who even gets stabbed these days?!? this came up in casual conversation as they were brushing and french braiding my hair since they decided it didn't look right. i believe the exact expression used was, "why you always look so plain, girl?" fast forward a few minutes, discussion of stab wounds. fast forward a few minutes, i'm seeing patients.
