They Took My Blood

[bloodyrosemccoy]

Today I got a couple of holes punched in me, then peed in a cup. Ah, the glamorous world of medicine. But I gotta say, that Health Center works fast when it wants to.  Tomorrow I’ve got a physical scheduled (as well as a consultation with my actual adviser, who will send me to the dreaded Money People) and on Friday I get to figure out whether I have tuberculosis.* And I don’t care what they say, my arm is sore. It doesn’t like to straighten. It will, but it doesn’t like it.

 

Still don’t seriously believe in Kenya.  Hell, as a Utahn, I barely believe in the ocean, and I’ve been to that. But I’m going through the ropes anyway.

 

 

*Although the nurse and I agreed that it would make more sense to get that test after I go to a country were TB’s looking for the opportune moment.
