Ahh yes the "Dreaded Yearly" Here's something to give you a chuckle.. you may have seen it before.. but it never fails to make me smile every time I make an apointment with the GYN:

OB-GYN - Most Embarrassing Moment
This is a laugh for all those women out there (and the men who love
them) who so look forward to that wonderful time once a year when they
get to be "intimate" with their OB/GYN doctor! In Sydney, Australia,
one of the radio stations pays $1000 - $5000 for people to tell their
most embarrassing stories. This one netted the winner $5000...

I was due later in the week for an appointment with the gynecologist.
Early one morning I received a call from the doctor's office to tell me
that I had been rescheduled for early that morning at 9:30 a.m. I had
only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already
around 8:45 a.m. The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I
didn't have any time to spare.
As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when
making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the
full effort. So I rushed upstairs, threw off my dressing gown, wet the
washcloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick
wash in "that area" to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw
the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the
car and raced to my appointment.
I was in the waiting room only a few minutes when I was called in.
Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table,
looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in
Paris or some other place a million miles away. I was a little surprised
when the doctor said, "My, we have made an extra effort this morning,
haven't we?" but I didn't respond. When the appointment was over, I
heaved a sigh of relief and went home.
The rest of the day was normal... some shopping, cleaning, cooking, etc.
After school when my six-year-old daughter was playing, she called out
from the bathroom, "Mum, where's my washcloth?" I told her to get
another one from the cupboard. She replied, "No, I need the one that was
here by the sink. It had all my glitter and sparkles in it."
