OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG FREAKING OUT!
I told the Birdie that I would go donate blood with her today!
Did I mention I'm the PANIC POSTER CHILD when it comes to needles?
Yeah, everyone gets nervous... I cry. *sniffle* And then I pass out.
And I have three hours to work myself up about it.
Neef.

No blood.
I got through the whole physical okay... I wasn't even panicking too bad! (blood pressure was 90/60... good stuff!) I managed the finger stick, and my blood iron even passed. I was surprised. So in I walk... freaking out, of course. The betadyne swab is what got me. They keep rubbing an rubbing right on that vein... Oh dear god. It still makes my right arm feel funny thinking about it. So I freaked out, and I cried, and they made me sit down for a while before I could leave. Damn it.

HOWEVER! To assauge my guilt at not saving three lives today... and because I've always wanted to... I picked up a Red Cross volunteer application. All sorts of cool stuff I could do. I think I'm gonna sign up for the emergency response team for an as-needed basis, and as a regular thing, pediatrics at Huntsville Hospital. So I can calm kids down when they are panicking because of getting a shot. =P

I should get back to teh company. Though Birdie and Jeremy seem to be getting along quite well. ;)
