It's been a while since I donated blood and I absolutely did not realize they would be coming at me with a 16 gauge needle 👁👄👁 I might be a phlebotomist but I use 21 at the biggest in my day to day - I'm not used to needles where I can see down the barrel of the thing

Just look at this li’l guy. I love how the shape of the brush is obviously a stiff circle, like the basic brush in a paint program. (It was probably, basically, a stick, dipped repeatedly in watery slip.) It’s easy to imagine and perform the set of strokes to draw himb.
Trying to be better about being present in the moment so that I can actually enjoy this trip instead of having anxiety about making my connection on the flight home the whole goddamn time 😀
Airports are neat because it's one of the only places i lie completely flat in the middle of the floor as an adult and nobody says anything
Gimme that sweet sweet Floor Time
