I have some funny stuff for you today but first, a question:
- Why the F**K do doctors take blood from a hidden vein in my elbow, when there's one in my hand that gets cut without any effort at all!? I didn't even know I'd done it until I noticed the droplets. Apparently there's a tiny piece of sharp metal sticking out somewhere in my house. I don't even know what or where it was, it just pricked my hand near the knuckle and miraculously hit a vein! Talk about a bleeder, sheesh. So that's where I'm instructing the doc' to take blood next year at my check-up.
Now for the funny stuff I promised you.
