The guy who hit my car this morning was lucky I already had coffee. I waved him off, after the idot rear ended me at a red light- there was no damage, and I was in a hurry. Starbucks saved another day! Though, I should have taken this for an omen...
At the Mayo Clinic (no Keno- I didn't order a sandwhich!) I spent 45 minutes listening to the genetics counselor give me a crash course in 7th grade biology and 8th grade anatomy... I realize I may have passed with D's but that's simply because I'm too smart for school, damn it.. and I got bored. I know how DNA works! That lecture really tested my patience and my ability to harness my A.D.D.
Next I was escorted down the hall where I was to have blood drawn. An impossible feat- even on my best day... I warned the technican that it would be difficult, and if she could swallow her pride and her need to stroke her ego- simply get her senior lab monkey to do the job- it would be less stressful. Yeah... she didn't listen... spent 5 minutes of bliss ::eyeroll:: with her fishing inside of my arm for the vein. No luck, no surprise. Her superior lab monkey offered to help- sticking me two more times before they gave up. I was ordered to go home and drown in gatorade....
Leaving the lab I was greeted by a symphony... seriously- piano, violin, bass... that combined with the expensive art smothering the walls made me laugh. Ohhh the irony! It reminded me of the Titanic sinking.
