Friends – I want to tell you a story about my daddy. You know there is a love/hate relationship that goes on between us. Nothing to fear really. But sometimes my daddy can be so darn goofy that I have to rat him out. This is one of those cases – snorts with piggy laughter.
Mom had to go back to the doctors office this morning for a follow up. At that point, the doctor told her that he wanted to take some blood to do blood work on the situation. Of course, it helps to know that my mom *hates* needles. If she doesn’t see it coming, she’s relatively okay. But, if she sees the situation, it’s not good.
So the nurse comes in to draw the blood while daddy and the doctor watch. Mom sees the needle – bad move Ms. Nurse. So mom is flinching and shivering. Daddy tells her to mom up and suck it up. Perhaps that should be put on dad’s headstone… “Told mom to suck it up.” Because you know mom’s head probably turned all the way around at this time to fuss at that daddy of mine. Who you also have to know is a jokester at heart and didn’t say this to mom to be mean.
Well about that time, the doctor tells the nurse to hold on for a minute. The doctor then asks daddy when he had blood work done last. HA! Way to go Mr. Doctor. So guess who got blood work drawn before mommy – snorts with piggy laughter. Way to go daddy in putting your size 10 foot in your mouth. And yes, mommy might have told daddy to suck it up too.
And of course after daddy’s blood work, the nurse knew better than to show mommy the needle this time. Afterwards, mom/dad walked out hand and hand with their taped arms. Oh for those keeping up, that’s dad’s arm with the pretty PINK tape – snorts and oinks my friends.

I thought so that pink was your male human’s arm – women’s arms tend to be a little less hairy. Slightly. Most of the times.

Nobody really likes needles. I once had to have an allergy test that required I be stuck with 100 needles. It took an hour and a half of non-stop sticking. After that, one or two needles were no problem. I just can’t watch the vials fill up with blood. Being a blood donor gets you used to it, too.

Oh WOW – 100 shots at one time. Ouchie my friend!! As long as mom doesn’t see the needles, she is good. XOXO – Bacon

I have one rule when it comes to drawing blood… I’m perfectly fine as long as I don’t have to look.
Unfortunately, that works to my disadvantage, and I have a 50-something EMT trainee/reject named Ed using me for practice and I fail to notice that he’s jabbing the hell out of my arm and not getting a single drop of blood. The real technician finally noticed and shoved Ed out of the way and showed him how it was done. I wore a nasty looking bruise on my arm from that one for two weeks. Never EVER let some guy named Ed draw your blood!

Writing this down for future note – no ED – NO WAY. I would have piggy passed out from ED’s lack of training my friend. You poor guy! XOXO – Bacon

Well, I should hope that hairy arm isn’t your mom’s! She must keep up with the waxing or she will have an arm just like dads. Just kidding friends…MOL
