I am what they refer to as…a moron.
Or as Krista put it this morning, a scatterbrain (like all men, she says).
I check the calendar last week, I have my annual physical at the Doctor’s office this coming Friday. I know for a fact that he will be checking out my cholesterol level so I decide to head to the blood clinic this morning. I get there at 7:15AM and wait in line for 45 minutes to get to the front desk where they ask if I have a requisition form and they inform me that they cannot take my blood without the form.
With this knowledge in my mind, I head to work wondering why I never got a requisition form in the first place many months ago while at the doctor’s office.
Of course, you all know what’s going to be said in the rest of this post. I am a moron for not realizing that I need a requisition form before going to get blood work. Krista pointed out that I can’t get ahead of the game and get some blood work done before a physical. I need to go in and see what the doctor requires of me in terms of blood work and get it done.
In my defense, this will be my second physical examination, hence, the reason I am dumb. 😉
What’s even worse is I phoned to confirm my appointment and they said they had nothing booked AND that my doctor had recently left the clinic and will be contacting all his patients personally. Well, that’s nice but now that I never had an appointment booked, what does that mean for me? Another six months to get booked?
*sigh* Clearly not a good start to the morning!
