Not feeling well - crook in the guts. The dunny roll is starting to feel like 800 grit and at this rate I'm gunna rub the freckle off my date. I think a short day may be in order.

First, the back-story:
So around November last year I had a rash on my lower leg that was sore and caused swelling. I got antibiotics and that took care of it, although the swelling took a while to go away from that last 10% to normal. I never knew what caused it. I think it was a metal chip from the machine shop that put a tiny scratch on my leg and it got infected. Anyway, I had a similar thing happen last month but on the other leg this time. Same deal with the antibiotics, but the (different) doctor thought the swelling wasn't going away fast enough, so he ordered an ultrasound on my legs to check that my circulatory system was alright.

Now, the good part:
So today I had the ultrasound done. It is only a block away from campus, luckily so I just rode my bike there. Sitting in the waiting room, the door opened and I heard my name and I followed the cute girl in the scrubs (of course). She couldn't have been more than a few years older than me. Well, turned out she was the ultrasound tech. I was pleased. But... it gets more interesting. About the first thing she said was "take off your pants [shorts]". Seeing as I had shorts and the swelling was in my lower leg I wasn't expecting this, but complied. The actual exam was... interesting... she had to check a vein in my groin, which meant... well, you know. Then I she had to check the same veins with me standing, and with her on her knees. So this was an interesting situation... hot girl on her knees with her hand on my junk. The $135 for the scan seemed like an even better deal at this point.

I, in chatting with her I had mentioned I was a mechanical engineer and she asked what year I was, I said 5th but that I liked the extra time I have this year to devote to the racecar and working in the composites lab. She was interested in the composites thing when I mentioned carbon fiber. She asked what it is, exactly and I got to explain how it is made and what not.

So it was an interesting day for me.
Meh! Medical practitioners hold you by the balls all the time. They're really not you friend until they stick a finger up your arse.

Go back and ask for a prostate check.

Max would love me right me right now. Blasting Katy Perry's "Part of Me" and dancing barefoot around the kitchen in a black sports bra and black yoga pants while cooking dinner. Ha ha!

I love dancing. It makes me happy.

Yes, behave, Rick. Unless it will make you feel better. I can take one for the Stijn team.

Crook = sick
Guts = tummy

I'm 5hitting through the eye of a needle at 50 paces, and I feel like spewing.

Maybe? Although dinner was a while ago and all I had for breaky was some toast and coffee.

I think I'm allergic to work, as I started to feel odd on the journey in this morning and had to rush to the loo when we parked.

Sounds like a plan. It's either that or move my office to the loo.


Organised a car - I'm off.
