Now that I'm getting up there in age, my doctor wants labs for everything.
Got a healthy appetite? Labs!
Your head itch? Labs!
Getting too much junk mail delivered to your hime? Labs!
I recognize each of the phlebotomists at our local lab. Went in today and saw Lauren. "How's it going, Lauren?"
She doesn't recognize me. I tell her she's poked me many times. She's nice and laughs at my lame jokes. I ask what her favorite candy is. She says something I don't recognize. I repeat it back to her. She then tells me she likes them all.
As she patches up her handy work, I take out a 3 Musketeers to give to her. "Oh, you don't have to," she says.
"I know, but that's what makes it special." She smiles taking the candy bar and I tell her to enjoy it on her break. She promises she won't forget me next time.
