You are indeed mad, but the blog obssession might not be the most telling sign of it... <BR/><BR/>That is actually someting I have found intersting about blogging. It has kind of made me look at life in terms of what might be something to share. Pay attention to it instead of just walking through it.

More than one has passed out cold on me during a pivotal moment (crowning). So don't feel bad. <BR/><BR/>That said, I laughed at your having to blog about it.

I now keep a notebook in my purse/commute bag so when a thought strikes I can write it down.<BR/><BR/>My sympathies on the needle aversion. I get an IV every 2 weeks due to a medical condition and I still don't like it. I cannot under any circumstances look at the needle when it's being inserted or removed, or anytime it's uncovered (like when the nurse is taping it up). So I usually fixate on my laptop while I'm getting stuck. I totally had to laugh when you looked for it as you came to. I'd be the same way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-1147063236477711522006-05-08T00:40:00.000-04:002006-05-08T00:40:00.000-04:00My huz has fainted upon seeing his own blood sever...My huz has fainted upon seeing his own blood several times.
