Afternoon
Worked out, finished Serpent's Shadow (the last of my library books) and then headed out to give plasma.
Hot. Hot hot hot.
Ah, bus. Yay, bus? Crowded bus.
Hot.
Wait. Wait wait.
The lady doing the screening was a n00b, and was therefore slower. My pulse was too high the first try. (Teach me to exercise beforehand!) Then, not enough red blood cells. So, called back into the booth to get another sample. This time there were enough, but I got called back again to get a third sample so she could test the protein.
Then, the donation room. Wait, wait wait wait. The movie about the football team (and also race relations) ended; I kept reading. The movie about the guy with the memory issues started; I kept reading. (Piers Anthony ruined that movie for me, and then BJ finished the job.)
Ice packs for summer are a good plan. I'm very pleased with myself. Also, long sleeves and having no exposed skin and nice big hats are good for me too. I wasn't waiting for the bus for long, though.
Had inspiration strike somewhere in the process, somewhere around or after page 407. We'll see how that pans out.
The rest of the household are still hanging with
marxdarx's mother and (!!!!!) future stepdad (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).
