Don't Ask / Don't Tell

I function best with an ignorance is bliss philosophy.  The less I know the better.  This is true with the Csection.  Yet, like driving by an accident on the highway I keep peaking even though I know I don't want to see the scene.

I go to Labor and Delivery twice a week for non stress tests.  I'm finding the benefits to be that I am becoming more comfortable there and I'm getting to know the nurses.  The cons to this situation is that I find myself asking more and more questions that I don't necessarily want to know the answers to.

I need to learn to not open Pandora's box.  I need to remember that curiosity killed the cat.  I need to just make small talk about the weather so that I do not lie awake at night thinking about catheters.
