Similarities

There's a stunning resemblance between a roller coaster and getting blood taken for your doctor: you wait in line for forty minutes for either but the whole experience ends up taking two. That said, the gentleman who took my blood samples was very, very good and it was the fastest and most painless "donation" I've ever had. I made sure to compliment him on it. (For the record, I'm enough of a wuss that I don't watch the needle going into me, but I have no problems watching the warm dark red stuff fill the four little bottles.)
