Went out this morning determined to be a productive good samaritan. Went to the blood donation center @ 7 in the morning on the heavy day of my period having eaten two bites of bread that morning. Nurse had to go on a hunt for my vein. Donate most but not all of a bag. I faint. Wake up with someone asking my name and am nauseous and my uterus is eating me alive. Have to lie with my feet up and cold paper towel on my forehead for a half hour. Nurse tells me if I don't let my food digest before donating it can make me feel nauseous, and that's probably half the reason I want to throw up. The other half is my uterus eating me alive. Toddle to the bathroom twice and get asked a couple times if I'm okay. Leave hoping I don't faint while driving. Guzzling water and eating fruit snacks on the drive out. Now I'm at a cafe to reward myself with tea and sugary oatmeal and studying for the GRE.
i dunno it's been a day already
