Day 22
Everybody could use a little improvement, right? I was supposed to visit a plastic surgery clinic and make a no-obligations appointment or something of that nature. Seeing as I cannot do this in my current situation (being at a boarding school, that is), I decided that calling a clinic would have to suffice. I was able to find a one open past five, and called with absolutely no idea what to say. At least when I was talking to the travel agent, I was interested in travel. However I happen to quite like the way I look, and even if I didn't I don't really like the idea of becoming fake. The woman who answered was much better at her job than Kelly of the travel agency (I do, of course, give Kelly credit for dealing with me). She talked clearly, in a very professional manner, and sounded kind of like she wanted me off the phone (which was probably true). I started out with the basics, asking if they did "plastic surgery-y stuff." She responded with an answer that was much more in-depth than it needed to be, so I proceeded to ask about various aspects of my body. While they can give me breasts, they cannot add other appendages, however they can make me look uglier if I really want to. We talked 'seriously' (or at least I gave the appearance of doing so) for a while, but I think she realized I wasn't actually planning any nips or tugs when I asked her if my face could be constructed into the exact likeness of a popular political figure. She must get more of these types of calls than Kelly, because she knew how to blow me off. She gave me the name of the website, and, leaving nothing else for me to say, we bade each other goodnight.
I went to the site and looked at the before and after photos. Many of them seemed unchanged, except for make-up in the "after" photo. Some struck me as not as attractive "after," and only a few showed what to me seemed like improvements. Glad you're not going in for a consultation.
