Sometimes Bed Is Best

When you wake up and it is raining, nay pouring, one should consider pulling the covers right back up over their head.

When you wake up to stormy weather and a head cold, complete with fever, bed is probably the best place to be.

When you wake up discover it is pouring, you have a head cold, and then manage to spill 32 oz of cran-grape juice on your white tile kitchen floor 5 minutes before you absolutely must leave or your children will be late for school, one should simply peel off their cran-grape soaked clothes and crawl back into bed, not shower off and schlep children to their respective schools nearly 2 hours late.

When you wake up and it’s raining, you have a head cold, have splatter painted your kitchen cran-grape and your kids were 2 hours late to school, the blood lab tech will inform you that the seemingly simple two tests ticked off on your sheet will require 11 viles of blood - ELEVEN

When you wake up in the driver seat of your car after having 11 viles of blood forcibly removed from your body and it is STILL raining, you should drive home immediately and not leave again (I mean after the wooziness has passed, of course).

    What in the HELL could possibly warrant the need for 11 viles of blood? Do you have any left?

    Holy crap. does the human body even contain 11 vials of blood?

    Should’ve just slipped them some cranapple juice instead.

    One of those days that make you go Oh Crap.

    11 viles! Geesh. Oh, and I love how the lab booths are set up so you can’t help but watch the blood whoosh in.
