Admitting that it has been a long time since hes allowed himself such an indulgence, local 26-year-old Greg Burnet told reporters Thursday that he recently decided to splurge on an appointment with his general practitioner. Ive been pretty good about saving up my money and I thought now was the time to really treat myself to a medical examination of the chronic abdominal pain Ive been experiencing, said the part-time office assistant and freelance graphic designer, adding that he was determined to really pamper [himself] by resting on an exam table as his doctor searched for a possible hernia. Normally, I wouldnt be one to just throw money around on blood tests and X-rays like this, but todays all about me. Who knows, when I get the results back, I might even go all out on a trip to the hospital. Id like to think Ive earned it. When contacted following his appointment, Burnet informed reporters that the medical treatment had left him riddled with guilt, announcing repeatedly that he would be less impulsive and reckless with his money in the future.
