Blue, corona virus or no, that's just unsanitary and mostly GROSS!
I just saw pdoc this afternoon. Was a boring appointment. She had a student with her that I'd met before. He was nice and asked appropriate questions. We talked about my taking more Haldol and she wanted to know why and I came up with some reason that I've now forgotten. She had me stick out my hands and tongue to see if they were shaking. I'm not sure which med that's about (am not on lithium anymore), but nonetheless... So we talked about n3 about how he's got a case of the "I'll do what I want"s.
Got some usual bills in the mail today. I assume I got my money today now that I think about it. It usually comes Friday before the first if the first lands on a weekend. I'm still worried that I won't be able to afford something- food or whatever- because I have to pay for my car's registration this month. (March.) Its the birthday present that keeps on giving- pay US for YOUR birthday month!
Been writing back and forth with the head of NOCIRC. Yes, that's what its about- no circumcision. It stands for National Organization of Circumcision Information Resource Centers. When I say "head" I mean she started the whole organization; there are state chapters out there run by people in those states, but she is the head chief. We've been talking about newborns and pain and how I was a preemie when born and had surgery 2 days thereafter. Interesting stuff. Of course, N1 and N3 aren't circumcised. Just wasn't something I thought they aught to go through- surgery as newborns. And all is fine-and-dandy. Of course, N1 one of these years might do away with her boy parts and that's okay. Okay- how did I get on this topic? Oh yeah- emails....
Here is an article on pain and the newborn and fetus. (Including preemies.)Very interesting.
