Part the second.

I went to the doctor today, re: the thing I posted about previous. Thank you all for your concern on that, btw. And mad props to Andrew, who is the bestest housemate ever.

I'm generally not that keen on going to the doctors. It's not that I find it particularly unpleasant, it's just that I always feel like I'm being a hypochondriac. I mean, when I think of all the times I've been to a GP, I have actually needed one precisely once, when I had tonsilitis (I'm not counting needing med certificates). Bah.

This time was at least interesting. I had electrodes attached to me! With conductive gel! And suction cups! My torso looked amusingly like it had been attacked by an octopus.

End result: My health is entirely normal. Which is boring from a narrative standpoint, but otherwise the best possible outcome. Cool.

Seeing as I'm doing these today, here's a pic:

and love to all my friends.

Eeexcellent picture. Congrats on being hale and hearty.

[puddlesofun.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Although...

You know, I never understood the hale part of that phrase.
Am I:
a) A fish?
b) Half of aging middle-of-the-road brit comedy duo briefly popular during the nineties?
c) A verb meaning to compel?

(or, you know, healthy, but that couldn't be it...)

It's just English having fun with the language. It's got a lot of phrases like that - for example, "full of vim and vigour". Vim means the same thing as vigour, but if English can say something twice (and with alliteration!) it damn well will.

Erm . . . I am a geek, yes.

That's why I like you.

[liadlaith.livejournal.com]

Aww, thanks!
