Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Everyone adapts. Lucky was Rob's cat, and now she's mine. It's different, but we all eventually managed.
My foster puppy wasn't mine when I took her on. She's really my dog now, especially if you ask her. In time she might be her owner's again... It's all different but we form relationships based on where we are, even pets.

I think I am coming down with a cold. That's a bit of a relief - although summer colds are miserable, I'm pleased that my recent total lack of getting things done can maybe be put down to sickness and not just me being a lazy git.

not your mom's socks.
So I hate needles. Correction: I get severe anxiety attacks in their presence. Thank you, awful childhood dentist. It's so bad, I was begging the docs to not give me any more shots before the emergency c-section.
Thus it stands to reason that I'm now looking at a lifetime of blood draws, every three to six months. I will get over the anxiety. I did last time, I can do it again. I know many others do this. I know so many of us have worse pain and more surgeries and this feels small. I know I can do it. But I am filled with so much do not want today. If you have don't-be-a-wuss~ma, or let-them-find-the-vein-on-the-first-try~ma, or good-results~ma to spare, I would appreciate it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, I was just about to whine about my lack of ability to buckle down and get shit done, when I saw my horoscope:
All you need to do is focus today -- if you've got that, you can take care of almost anything. See if you can push yourself to stick to the plan no matter what. It can work out!
Crap.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I was so excited about my first work from home day on the new job. Don't have to get up early! Don't have to put on fancy clothes! Don't have to deal with people!
When I grabbed my work laptop, I neglected to also grab a power cord. So I will be dropping by work later today anyway.

The stars are against you, Jesse! Or you are against them, I'm not sure.
Good luck, Sox. I hope you can find a way to ease/cope with the anxiety. Would a valium or some such before the blood draw mess things up medically?
