Hey, boss. I'm going to have some bloodwork done on my way in tomorrow. I should be in by 8:30. I went to do it on Friday afternoon, but my doctor's office failed to tell me I had to be fasting. Grrr.

Oh, yeah. Just routine bloodwork. Especially since I have a new endocrinologist and I haven't had any bloodwork since before I left Missouri. No worries. Bloodwork is pretty common in my life.

 

(I left work before I read her response. I imagine she'll either know what an endocrinologist is for or she'll consult Dr. Google. Even Dr. Google won't give her a concrete answer, though. Perhaps I should start a conversation tomorrow...especially considering I found myself at 46 while in a meeting this morning with few symptoms. Fortunately I was near my desk and could test and (over) treat.)
