And yes, you should.
Buy a couple of feet of small diameter tubing at a hardware store ($1-$2.) Take a container and put it on the ground. Take out the dipstick. Insert the tubing into the dipstick tube all the way -- as far as it will go. Suck hard on the tubing and watch the oil come up. Careful not to get it too close to the end or you will be tasting it. Once it gets to within a couple of inches from the end, quickly take it from your mouth and seal it with your finger so that the oil stays put. Quickly lower the end of the hose over the container -- as far down as possible. The goal is to get it below the oilpan. Watch the oil flow, estimating how much to take out. The container you use should be shallow and open, such as a frying foil from a dollar store.
You'll want to do this when the oil is warm but not hot.
