blood

It was up as always at five in the morning, cool air, bathroom and shower. Then the deadly hiss on the right, the eyes defocus, lie down for a second on the couch and wake up three hours later.
So much for that.
The wife concerned, and then concerned over her own business. As always.
The son sick in bed, a sore head.
Too much staring at computer screens.

Get the bag, leave the house. Doctor's assistant wants fresh blood.
So take the car to the doctor's practice, let her draw that blood.
Two tubes, and an appointment for Thursday.
All running well.

Drive on to work, Autobahn, keep a steady speed with the slowed traffic.
The road is being repaired.

And finally reach the place of work.

This is a miserable day.
Badly started, and with no luck it will have a bad end.
