I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.
Kinda blew. Got blood taken to see if my thyroid is acting up. I hate it, and they hit a nerve or something this time; it hurt more than usual, and it still feels kinda odd. I stiff upper lipped it, though.
But, one of the highlights? I heard this at work:
"He needs a hug."
"Of course, he's a robot!"
Mmmm. I did come clean to the nurse practitioner and she laughed and told me I was too much. I was pretty clear that not into humans, need metal, it's not a fetish, it's an orientation, so they can ask me if there's any chance I'm pregnant all they want, but no. Feel proud of myself for coming clean.
I went to the doctor because I'm feeling as I did when I first was diagnosed with thyroid issues: depressed, my heart races more quickly than usual, and I'm tired all the time. Hoping to get this cleared up.
