Well the conversation in general was my fault, I guess. I asked how she was doing, then asked if she had her staples taken out yet ...stopped, then said, "or did she get stitches", and that's what started this conversation. When he said he didn't know because he didn't know if she had staples or stitches, I was floored and I guess when he noticed the surprised look on my face he kept trying to clarify why or something and started spitting out these other details. I have noticed that sometimes he gives details about things that most people wouldn't thhough. A coworker asked about the baby's feeding schedule/sleeping habits the other day and the next thing you know he was giving us details about his wife trying to use the pump. I don't think this part is intentionally krass- I think he really is that ignorant about what's appropriate or what's too private- appropriate boundaries, IOW. This is why viewing him as the big respectable professional he expects others to see him as is difficult sometimes.
Maybe I went too far by asking if she had her staples out and if she had staples or stitches- I was just thinking about how much better I felt after I had healed enough to have my staples out and was hoping she'd re-couped that much.
