Medical drama ahoy.

Allow me to recount to you this tale of misery and woe. I went to the doctor's today for a checkup, and the doctor wanted to do a random blood test for mono (I've got a virus, but it's definitely not mono. Even if it were, it would just have to run its course and bloodwork would not help anything).

The nurse came in to take my blood, proceeded to miss the vein, move the freaking needle around in my arm, pull it out, stab me again and fail again. I was not pleased and was doing everything in my power not to swear or flinch away too much -- I've had a fair bit of bloodwork done before and nobody's ever screwed it up that badly. The doctor wanted the nurse to try my other arm and both my dad and I protested. My dad said something about thinking bloodwork was unnecessary, and the doctor literally whipped around and was like, "Oh, so what medical school did you go to, then?" My dad tried to ask him a question, and the dude was like, "Oh, no, no, no, you're obviously the doctor here -- " Seriously? WTF.

That was the most unprofessional and unpleasant appointment I've ever dealt with. We won't be going back there, but for the first time in my life, I really understand why people hate going to the doctor's. I will never take a decent physician for granted again. Unbelievable.

11. A photo of your least favorite character: I hate Martin Keamy so much it's probably a little unhealthy. He terrifies and skeeves me out and he really should have died in a much more painful way.



12. Whatever tickles your fancy: the community 8_15 , which is where I've been getting all these beautiful images. Seriously, they raise screencaps to an art form.
