Simple Pleasures: September 7th

- a cozy sweater on a a chilly, rainy morning

- a day job with flex time that enables me to come in, work for a few hours, leave for a few hours for a doctor's appointment, and then come back and work for a few more hours and not need to use any sick time or vacation time

- sitting through a full spectrum allergy skin test, receiving 60 shots (30 in each arm) and not being the least bit frightened or jumpy. After all the blood work I've had done these last few years, needles have ceased to upset me. This is one childhood fear that I have knocked out cold, and damn it, that feels pretty fecking good :)

Wheee!!!

WOW. Seriously impressed with your shot-taking ability. Sometime in the next few months I have to get blood drawn for the first time and I'm ALREADY dreading it!
