“Take a seat right over there.”
“Okay.”
“Which arm?”
“It doesn't matter—it's hard either way.”
“Other phlebotomists have had problems finding a vein?”
“No, it's hard on me!”
“What?”
“I can't stand needles.”
“Oh, it's not going to hurt.”
“That's what they all say.”
“Now, now …”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“That was just the alcohol wipe!”
“You could have warned me!”
“Why me?”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“I was just uncapping the syringe.”
“Oh god … ”
“Are we ready?”
“ErrrrrrrrAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
“You do realize we've soundproofed the room, so screaming won't help any.”
“How much longer?”
“Sigh.”
“How much longer? Aaaaaaaaaa! The horror! The horror!”
“Aaaaand—we're done! That wasn't so bad, was it?”
“The blade is sharp … Lucky … my heart only skips one beat …”
“What are you, twelve?”
“… blacked out … can't afford that …”
“Would you like a lollypop?”

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
