With apologies to the squeamish

[angelchicken]

So, I'm getting a long past due physical this Thursday (well, not horrid. It's been two years. I've missed a year. I'm not *that* bad, damn it) with all the blood work involved. And I was curious.

So a poll:

[Poll #1083594]

And also:

Everyone should go read leaping_lemurs, nutmeg3's journal of her trip to Madagascar last month. It is *awesome*. Not only is Nutmeg a wonderful wordsmith and detailed without being overbearing, but she has PICTURES! Of LEMURS!

PEOPLE! WE ARE TALKING MOUSE LEMUR FEET! The level of cuteness is unparalleled!

So go and read. So very worth it. And it's not all Lemur pictures (though I did mention the feet, right?). there are fish! And bugs! And toads and crabs and bungalows and rain and so much more!

So go and read. I command you.

Also, play the ljdq (since I'm pimping). It is tons of fun and totally absurd and something to look forward to on Mondays.

I had bloodwork done a few months ago for the first time in . . . um, let's say a very, very long time, and I had to lie down for it, not watch, and then I shook for twenty minutes afterwards. I do not deal well with blood or with blood-extracting devices, and certainly not any combination of the two. Luckily the technician was very kind.

Oh, I do know people who react like you. One of them was a very large woman who was also very strong and very flaily. She said that bloodwork was an interactive sport with her. Heh.

Poor Abby. *calms you*
