Some of these stories about pregnancy reminded me of this story. It was a small thing, but ...
I was having some minor surgery. I had to go to the hospital the day before to have blood drawn, etc.
Nurse: Have you ever had surgey before?
Me: I had my tubes tied ten years ago.
-- a few more questions --
Nurse: Okay, I need a urine sample. Here's a cup and you can use the restroom here.
Me: (embarrassed) Oh, gee. I just started my period and I'm really bleeding a lot. Can you note that on the cup so they don't return it as abnormal if there's blood in my urine?
Nurse: (dismissively) Oh, it's just for a pregnancy test.
Me: Thinks WTF? I just told you that I was (1) sterilized and (2) actively un-pregnant!
