I am a super pumper! For someone who has typically low blood pressure I sure donated my blood at a super fast rate yesterday! 11 minutes from start to finish.  114/90 heartrate 70.  THEN I sat down to drink my apple juice and eat my cheese-it's (my absolute favorite junkfood snack) and the preps guys who just donated sitting across from me ask, "you okay?" I say, "yeah, sure, um...no, I uh,...ugghhhhh" they called for the nurse I put my head down and focused on just staying ALIVE.  I always know the risk of fainting is big with me, I always get a little light headed and a bit nauseus but this time is happened with a swiftness! I got to lay on a cot and got cold compresses on my back and chest.  In 6 minutes, I was totally back to normal! and I'd just saved a life with my sweeeet O- blood.  I took three packs of cheese-its too.  They are my achilles heel of snack foods. SO GOOD!!




I moved outta my place last night for the rest of the month and will now be staying with Mandy & Dustin and Amber and Jason for the remainder of the month! It feels surprisingly liberating to be nomadic for the time being!  Unfortunately I have an entire suitcase of shoes.  All my stuff fit into a teensy suitcase but my shoes, well, had to do it, got their own suitcase. It's also a friday, so I'm feeling pretty fine indeed!! Happy hour tonight with my Getty peeps....is it five yet?!
