CRUISIN' FOR BRUISIN'

We had our annual wellness bloodtests today. For some reason, it's hard to find a "juicy" vein in my arm from which doctors and nurses can draw a good amount of blood. Last year, the lady who took our blood freakin' probed the needle under my skin (think Matrix) and STILL couldn't get enough blood in the vial so she poked at my other arm!!!

Luckily the nurse today found a way and she got enough blood in those tubes for testing. Unfortunately, I bruise like a peach and there's an unsightly red, blue and purple-looking gash on my left arm, right where my elbow bends...and I'm being such a baby about it cuz it freakin' hurts! And I wanted to be a doctor! Me, the wussy!
