Getting my medical

So we had to go in to get medically cleared in order to get our visas extended. It's something that everybody has to do, and people talked it up to being a real annoying experience. Anyways, we finally find this place and stand in line for a long time, then are told to go upstairs for several tests. One of them was a blood and urine test, and as we're standing in line for the walk up blood test, there's another American guy we see turning in his small cup at the other end of the counter, while holding a cotton ball against his skin with blood dripping down his arm. He's laughing his ass off while Pat and I are standing there laughing with him at the absurdity of this situation. Anyways, we basically just laugh our way through this whole ridiculous process, which included getting an ultrasound for whatever reason, and got medically cleared.

Observation:
Pat and I were stuck in traffic trying to get to work today at around 3:30 in the afternoon. In the taxi in front of us, a man sticks his head out and starts violently puking out of the window, then takes a look back at our cab, and settles back in as the taxi pulls away
