Medical morning

[cjsmith]

This morning's agenda kept me hopping:

- Blood draw for Lyme disease test
- Doctor appointment with my GP, which earned me...
- Blood draw for vitamin D levels and a very detailed cholesterol panel

And guess what I did? Am I doing better or WHAT?

I

WATCHED.

A half hour later my blood pressure was still a touch lower than expected, so yeah, there are effects, but overall I'm getting so much better about needles and suchlike. (I do, however, have a new bruise inside each elbow.)

Exactly! So, now that you have time to experience any post-traumatic stress that might have occurred, would you like me to hold your hand? :)

Hee! Sadly, I don't need handholding nearly so much as I need lunch. :)

Bummer. This is why I never flirt. :(

But go get yourself a good lunch. :)

You keep choosing women who are more hungry than horny? :)

I ate a good lunch and I'm hungry again. This is crazy. I wonder if I do something weird to myself when I get blood drawn -- dump all my glycogen store, have an adrenaline spike, something.

That's possible. I somehow doubt it is entirely the women's fault that I don't flirt well, but it definitely would spare my self-esteem to believe that is true. :)
