Hehe.. I find it amusing that CNN did a piece on Danny Choo, I’ve been going to his site since forever, mostly just for Tokyo Stormtrooper stuff originally, but for anyone who has or once had a penchante for anime his site is a useful portal. Kudos to him on making a job out of his hobby.

Health checks. Japan has them, and in great number. I’d be happy with this save that I have got to the age where they are starting to terrify me ever so slighty. It wouldn’t be unfair to say I’m passed or in the process of passing my most verile years, at a ripened 26-soon-to-be-27, I can see the crest of my fourth decade rising ahead and I’m none too pleased about the baggage that comes attached with that. I never wish to have to discuss my prostate and the investigating of it with anyone.
Since the worrying and expensive incident of noncancer I have been eager to avoid having any further checks carried out as I am a lover of bliss, and ignorance is one of the “must have” items for collectors. However, the inevitable treachery of common sense dictates that if it’s free and likely to help in any way then one should snap up the opportunity. So, today I trotted up to the health centre to claim my gratuitous bill of health or lack thereof. After being whisked through height/weight, eyes/ears and blood pressure I joined the incredibly long line for blood tests. What’s more enjoyable than filing rank for 30 minutes to get stabbed in the arm after all? Finally my turn comes for intravenous intrusion and I query my would be assailant as to whether I needed it as during the time I had been waiting several people seemed to have left without blood loss. As it turns out, the woman at blood pressure booth had made a mistake and handed me 3 vials for no reason, as I’m not down for blood tests this year.
I think my point is this, there is always a way to make matters of health more painful than they need to be. An optimist would point out “at least you didn’t have to have the tests right?”. Smarmy bastard. Lucky I only know miserable sods really.
In other news, Mr. Danny Choo makes me happy for some reason.
