We took the kids to DC to the Natural History museum today. It was a great getaway, and the kids enjoyed it immensely. I’ve never seen them so excited; they couldn’t wait to get from one exhibit to another and touch everything they could get their hands on.
We had a blast. Well, except for one little tiny thing. I made a horrendous discovery. I saw something…a device…that made me cringe in abject horror.
In case you can’t read it…this monstrous contraption is a syringe…used..and I quote: “…in the urethra to inject liquid mercury as a treatment for syphilis.”
To go all valley-guy on you for a sec ‘like, ohmygod ewww’
The 17th century must have REALLY sucked.
