- If you’re married, this probly doesn’t apply to you, but: Are you mindful about getting tested for STDs/HIV at least semi-regularly? Why/why not? Married people: Were you mindful about this type of thing when you were single? Why/why not?
you bet your damn ass i do. that shit is important. regardless of what i do — because i am careful and discriminate and fucking behave — you can never be too certain about what the other person does. current situation excluded, people will fuck you over, but in this instance it’s playing with your life. so yeah, i get tested and i stay clean. it’s a little bit of peace of mind that i depend on. everyone should, really. - Do you get regular (or at least semi-regular) checkups to make sure everything is working okay? Does it matter to you? Why/why not?
not exactly, except for annual exam. i’m the worst worst worst about my eye exams, though. i haven’t seen an eye dr. since i was around 20-21 years old, i think. i’m going to do it this year, though. i swear! - Do you believe in preventative medicine (Pap tests for the girls, colonoscopies, physicals, etc)? Why/why not?
to some extent, yes. girlie exams are important — but god do they suck more than anything — and such, but i do think there is a point where you let paranoia take over. that and, i fucking hate doctors/hospitals/etc.
i am mopey because my shoes are broken. and even mopier because i found the absolute perfect replacement — the cherriest of shoes — but am poor until next week.
rat dicks.
