The Ministry of Tourism is the Devil

Good news today: We picked up our blood tests from the hospital and we don't have any diseases!

Bad news today: The guy at the police station wouldn't take it because it’s not from the government clinic, even though its the same test. He said it could have been forged, so we had to go to the clinic and fight the crowds and nastiness to get blood drawn yet again. Now both my arms are sore and bruised. Yah, for blood tests!

Good news today: The clinic wasn't very packed. We were in and out in 20 minutes.

Bad news today: We had to go to that stupid clinic in the first place! On top of that, the results won't be ready until Thursday! 4 more days of overdue visa fees!

Good news today: I may be going to Lebanon for the weekend.

Bad news today: I am leaving on Thursday, so I will return and have to go through all of this again. I could have just skipped this whole headache and just paid the fine that I am going to have to pay anyways and saved the 30 bucks for the blood tests and just started over on Sunday when I returned under a new visa.

This is getting flippin' ridiculous.

From now on we are just going straight to the nasty clinic and fight the crowds and dodge the diseases and get the stupid test.
