My mother got really hurt the last time she donated
If possible, get a phlebotomist and not a nurse at a blood drive. You want the person who sticks people all day long day after day. Most nurses don't have nearly that much practice.
I first donated blood to meet Robert Heinlein at MidAmericon.
I haven't been able to donate blood for the past few years because I keep getting tattoos, within 12 months of each other. But if I don't get new ink by December, I should go donate.

This. I donated blood once, during my freshman year of college. I had an hour and a half between classes. The nurse took forever and never did find a good blood vessel. By the time they finished drawing blood, I was late for my next class. I ran there (without waiting for juice and cookies), which was a big mistake. I didn't pass out, but it was a near thing.
Getting tooth fixed. Could use some get through it ~ma
. The novice shot almost undid me.
And I just needed another shot
. Hopefully this takes. This shot didn't hurt as bad but it keeps freaking me out.
Dental--Ma.(I used it last year, but it should still be good, right?)
There are two things that I probably should stop thinking about Kentucky's Senate Candidate, right?
1. Wow, Boyd Crowder's new Senator!
2. Her hair is shiny enough that she could be a green ball of energy.(But I really am a srs activist)
Well it's over for today. The nerve us inflamed and I have to see an enndodist. I have a temp filling
I had a root canal last year...it sucked, but somehow less than advertised, not that I'm recommending them.
Tooth~ma, askye.
I'm in Illinois now. In about an hour I'll be meeting part of the search committee for dinner. I always forget how much I like these nice, open spaces. It's like something in my psyche uncramps.

In terms of the nail polish box, it is still in Seattle. Assuming we can get it out of Seattle, can people let me know if they are still interested in participating and/or if someone else would like to take over the organizing?
