Went into Kaiser yesterday to have three big test tubes of blood drawn out. Nothing wrong. I'm just a volunteer for research on people who creak.
The Asian vampire lady told me all sorts of stuff during the draw-down. No idea what she said. An incredibly heavy accent. Hopefully I didn't miss anything important. But at least she had good aim, put a nice big bandage on my arm. So I step out of the lab and ask this other lady if she could give me another bandage. So she shoots me up with a superdose of flu vaccine and bandages my right shoulder to balance out my left elbow bandage. If my right arm starts to hurt, she tells me, I should keep flexing it and apply ice. This morning it's starting to get sore.
Anyway, all of this is in preparation for Friday's Shi DeCheng seminar, which I think Lady Cranefly and I will be attending. Just felt that in all fairness to DM I should handicap myself by going 3 gallons low on the red stuff and put my immune system into a tail spin.
