OMFG, I HATE getting blood work done. I have the tiniest, most annoying rolling veins in the universe. It takes most nurses three or four pokes to finally get blood flowing, and half the time they wiggle the god damned needle around in my arm LIKE BACK AND FORTH AND ALL AROUND looking for a vein they're NOT GOING TO FIND. I'll never give blood for this reason. It doesn't always leave lingering pain, but for some reason both my arms feel like they're on fire...fire with knives, because of course they had to try both arms because they couldn't get the first arm to work.
Oh, and getting there and back was a total bitch. New Orleans streets are like...if a drunk person took a bunch of lines and threw darts at them, that's how the streets are arranged. And only in one direction, because two way streets would just make too much sense. My sense of direction is already kinda pitiful, but I somehow managed to actually navigate to the hospital but then the street I took to get there was only one way so I had to wander in a zig-zag pattern all the way back only to discover that they're doing road work on the ONLY STREET that can get me onto campus because the one on the other side IS ONLY ONE WAY. Jesus fuck, people. So I had to go past my dorm three blocks, since you can't make left turns on about 2/3 of the streets, find a one way up, then over, then up and over again, and then I had to pull around the wrong direction on a one way to get to the damn parking lot entrance. And the construction workers had the indecency to actually glare at me because they likely thought I was going to try to get around their barricade when I pulled around onto the one way. Because, you know, it's too much for me to try to GO HOME.
Ugh. Thank god I only have one class on Fridays and then I'm getting picked up because if I had to drive home, I think I'd actually choke a bitch.
Also, epic homework is epic.
