Go to the dentist. In about 10 minutes.

Oh...shit. I was supposed to go for a blood test appointment today. I never miss appointments.

  Can you just go to the lab and wait?  Maybe they can fit you in.  :orly:

It used to be that way, now they have a booking system. I guess it's to spread out the people throughout the day. Though, I've just realised I've saved on bus fare by doing this. Don't ask why, it just works out that way. So it's not really so bad. :2thumbsup: I'm going to go a different hospital to carry it out, where you do walk in. I guess it would have to be early in the morning so it's not packed, because it gets ridiculously packed in the afternoons. Say you take a ticket and you're about 100 places behind. It happens to be the worst hospital in England for maternity, it was actually on the news a few years ago.

  Sorry to hear that.  I have to wait a little bit for my blood tests, but not like that.  :nerd!:

I *think* it's just because it's a major hospital in East London, it happens to be packed. Then, so are other areas of London. Having said that, they closed about three hospitals and then opened that one, so it's going to be in demand. My local (little) hospital is actually far, far nicer. About 10x nicer. The area itself is middle to upper class, and it's surrounded by trees.

I wouldn't want to go to Basildon hospital. Oh, here's a funny story: When my sister went for maternity aftercare there, they said they had mothers enquiring about whether they could puree McDonalds food for their babies. :heart:

Perhaps that's not such a bad idea. :mischief:

Going over to a friend's house for Thanksgiving. I want to, but don't want to at the same time. I know it's good to get out and socialize, but the pressure and anxiety are sometimes a bit much. I'd much rather stay home and play video games.

  First I'm going to the lab at the clinic for the bloodwork needed for my yearly physical.
  It's fasting bloodwork, so no half-and-half in my coffee, no apple juice, no food till
  afterward.  I posted a sign on my refrigerator door to remind myself.  One word: NO  :laugh:

Kayleigh and I have been invited to a get-together tomorrow afternoon. I want to go, but don't want to at the same time. I will probably get a headache. I'd much rather stay home and do housework. ;)

  Housework is enjoyable once one gets started.  It results in feelings of pride and accomplishment!  :sweep:

Evening appointment? We don't have those here.

I'm going to wash my hair and while it is drying I shall look for some Excel tutorials online.

Drive up to my sons house and go help him pick up a couch he bought that will not fit in any of their cars

  When I visit my brother at this time of year, I ask him to drive me around the neighborhood
  to look at Christmas lights.  There's one house that does up the shrubs in green and two shades of blue.
  The darker blue is a color I remember loving from when I was a preschooler.  It's beautiful.  :2thumbsup:
