Eye caramba!

The idea of getting a piercing or a tattoo is flinch-worthy enough--I don't even want to think about getting me some eyeball jewelry.

(On the subject of needles, though, I have to admit that yesterday's blood test ended up being somehow much less stress-filled than past ones have been. Having a friend nearby definitely helped, perhaps even more than I anticipated, though I also seem to have done a better job of distracting myself.)
