I wrote on the social networks this morning…
This is a very common thing apparently for people with sensory processing disorder. So I threw it up wondering if I was the only one of my friends and readers. I don’t think loving the feeling of heavy weighted aprons full of lead on my chest is weird – I mean I’m not Temple Grandin squatting in that hug machine she built. That chick’s nuts!
I’ve received a number of Tweets and Facebook comments confirming that plenty of people get off on that lead shield thing. Man, does that apron rock. I was at an all day training today for this support group thing I do, and the whole time I kept fantasizing about those lead deals. I even made a mental to-do.
Go home and look up “buy dental lead aprons cheap.”
So, I did.
This is about the cheapest one you can get. How awesome is it that you can get this fucker monogrammed? If I buy it, and I totally might, I’m going to get “TFP” on there, and make it the official lead apron of this site. Because that makes sense.
If you don’t get a super hit of dopamine every time you get your molars x-rayed, well, then you probably think I’m a super weirdo. I bet if you ask ten people in your office about lead pleasure, seven will know what’s up.
And, if you’re British, have one of your American friends explain what this is. (Yes, I went for the obvious joke. I’m not above it.)

So, you like hugs and really tight shirts (like surf shirts) as well?
I don’t have this lead apron love of which you speak, but my wife works with kids, some of whom have this same love.

I know what you are talking about. It feels like a warm hug from a midget.

My hairstylist has a weighted thing he puts on my shoulders to hold the cape in place…also awesome.
