Medical ...

Today was poking / prodding / drawing blood day. In order to be in Peace Corps Response, you need to get medically cleared to go. Makes sense, as you are going to be somewhere sans Westernized (or at least the Western expectation of) hospitals or dentists. Not that I mind that last bit ... I'd much rather grapple with bears than spend time in a medical facility of any sort. Just wish I still had health insurance; getting cleared isn't cheap.
