Thanks for commenting (I was planning on messaging you via wx if you didn't catch my post, anyway). I've decided that I'm going to keep my appointment at CVS. The entire drill won't take me more than 30 minutes, and I'll use the opportunity to stock up on vitamins and the like (not that I couldn't do the same at a gazillion other places, though). When I think about the 100+ PCR tests I got last year (you missed out on most of that fun), one more isn't a big deal.
