Me too. I've been thinking about getting tested for a while, no time though.
Will having a blood lead test tell me if I was exposed to lead as a child?
Lead stays in the blood about 3 weeks. Most is excreted and the rest goes into the bones. So, a blood test will only show recent exposure.

You wake up in the middle of the night from a nightmare where you're stitching a 10/10 blur pattern and find out that three hexes of the same color are touching each other.

you r addicted to stitching if you look at bags and want to make one rt now but you cant, because your dog is stupid and ate all the fabrics you had ( even the bag you were suppose to repair ! ) *stupid dog*
when youre getting chewed out by your boss or mom, or youre bored in class... and you spend your time trying to get the lead out of the grooves in the soles of your gunits instead of taking notes or listening to your amish boss.
when you stitch three bags in one day because youre excited (yesterday).
when you have arguments in threads about what the word "stitch" means and you get pissed off for the rest of the day because you feel that people are dumbasses.
when you show your dad your two newest bags and youre proud because dad says "they look identical except for the colors".
when you try to think of ways to hide a glovers needle in your shoe so that when you go to new years jam you wont have to worry about not having your kit if your luggage gets lost during plane travel.
when you get mad that someone new is selling footbags for $30+ when you know thats rediculous but you still want to punch them in the nose.[/list]

...if all of your money is gone because of it...
...if you constantly find yourself in filthy, rat-infested alleyways to do it...

oh, in that case
...if you try to flip your straighty to get money to buy glover's needles...
