The new Sherlock Holmes trailer has inspired some truly cracky fics, to which I now add my mite, inspired by [livejournal.com profile] janeturenne and Jude Law in that uniform thingie (see icon). Slashy, for them that minds... Silly, too.


Per Suit

The brown suit disappears out of the wardrobe on Tuesday, and when it turns up again, it is ensconced in Mrs. Hudson's mending basket where it will stay until she can find matches for the one remaining button. )

Had to go to doctor today and due to various considerations (like I work with children who go to schools that have been closed due to flu and then come to the library instead, and my asthma had me coughing like a badly tuned engine) I was persuaded to allow the doctor to take a couple of flu swabs for testing.

They're nasal swabs.

Before she started, she gave me a kleenex box to hold.

Why? you wonder. So did I, and she explained nicely that the box was for me to hold so that when I hit the point when I felt like punching her I couldn't.

Even with that kind of fair warning, I must say that nasal swabs have now topped my list of medical pokings designed to send one immediately from "gosh, that's uncomfortable" straight to "WHATTHEMCWHOSITDOYOUTHINKYOU'REDOINGTOMELADY???!!" without passing GO or collecting 200 dollars.

And gee, whiz, kids, we get to do it twice! To the same nostril!

*whimper*


I think, after all that, I'm kind of hoping that it will turn out to be the flu. Just to make the pain worth the gain and all. And because if I have it now, no one's going to make me have to swab my nose again on the next round of flu, because I'll be immune, right?

yikes!
