today i had another follow-up appointment at toronto western's fracture clinic, to check my progress and to get a new cast. when i went in to get x-rays, i was assisted by a cute x-ray technician who looked vaguely familiar. "have i x-rayed you before?" she asked with a head tilt. i replied with a deliberately unsure "maaaybe," and she continued to make small talk while spending what seemed like way too much time setting up and re-doing my two x-rays. in any other setting, i would've assumed that the cast effect was in play. however, since her job involves helping a steady stream of people in casts, i had no idea if i was being hit on or if she was just being friendly (and having bad luck with the machinery).
