Visiting the Vampires

I got the deed done. It didn't feel like it had been six months rather than two weeks since I had my bloodwork done last but I sure caused them some trouble. Apparently I had been 'discharged' from the lab. By whom, I have no idea.

I restrained my self from making the same joke I make every time I go there despite it being a fresh new person I'd never seen before. The whole thing feels like second nature to me, I breeze through it like others would make a coffee order.

"One standing order with an add on, not on the arms, doesn't hurt, no tape. Thanks, see you in six months"

Hesitating

I'm hesitating on going to get my bloodwork done today. It's been 6 months and I'm still so used to seeing the bloodsuckers every other week. I've noticed that I hate walking in the direction of the hospital in general. It's a beautiful walk through the tree lined neighborhoods. I go for walks quite often and had sort of wondered why I always choose a route that is away, when the reason struck me. Even now that I know and it's only a 10 minute walk I swear it's the longest walk ever. I'll put on my earbuds and just go.
