I did my least favorite activity today
I had a blood test.
I dread, hate, abhor, detest, fear, having someone stick a needle in my arm and sucking the life giving juices out.
Ok, maybe I am a little over dramatic. But I really don't like it.
I visited a friend in a nursing home today. As I was walking to his room, a fellow patient was in a chair in the hall. She said hello to me as I walked past.
I said hello back.
I left for a minute, she said hello again, I said hello back.
The third time I passed her she asked me to stop and talk. I told her I was on my way to visit a friend.
As I left, she was still in the hall way. So I stopped to talk.
She was old. Very old. And thin. She seemed lonely.
She asked me my name and I said, in a clear voice, Terry. She smiled and said, "That's spelled Plizx, right?" I said she was right and she seemed very happy.
She then asked how I tasted today. I told her I was very sweet. I held her hand for a moment and then said I had to leave. She kept talking as I went down the hallway, saying I should come back and visit.
I'll let you decide which was my least favorite activity.
Peace and Love and stay young, my friends. Stay young.
