gave blood today. it sucked. they fucked up my arm. didn’t find the vein the first time, so shes moving it around trying to find it. calls another lady over to do it, she gets it, all fine and good. and then right near the end it stopped, clotted in the needle. so the 1st woman is moving it around again, trying to get it to go. calls the other woman back, she’s trying to do stuff. then i’m getting a humongus dark purple bruise. so she just stops it, and takes it out. yeaaah great. so now my arm is all messed up and i have to put ice on it all day or something. blah. adrienne went with me, and hers was fine.

so last night, adrienne came over to watch the sabres game. eric came by during the game. got danielle after, and did the obligatory denny’s/walmart excursion. fun times. walmart actually had a Tom license plate, but it was all banged up and icky. so no buy. danielle and i played football in an aisle…all good.

i’ve had “cherry lips” by garbage in my head for 3 days now. i love that song lol.

my arm hurts. i dunno if i should take the bandage off cuz i think it keeps bleeding.

well i went to dinner with muhammed, cuz my parents went to dinner and a play. we went to IHOP…my first IHOP experience. it was alright. lots of food for the money, but my fries were icky, and yeah…i dunno. not really impressed, denny’s is better, if you can imagine that LOL. muhammed and i were going to go to the mall so he could by vinyl pants, but hes so broke, and his credit cards are maxed out he decided he couldn’t go…can’t go to the mall and not buy something LOL. so we sat around his apartment, ended up watching the first period of the sabres game.

then i came home, and did the gift thing with the parents. i tell people that just cuz i’m an only child doesn’t mean i’m spoiled. and then they go and buy me a new VCR since mine broke, AND a dvd player… LOL. neither are top of the line expensive stuff or anything (esp the dvd player), and VCRs are so cheap it was probably like 40 bucks. but yeah…got some clothes, and some kitchen stuff…salad spinner, frying pan, cook books…LOL i was excited too, i’m such an adult. and mommy got me this rad U2 book called “into the heart” that goes through every song they’ve recorded. it’s neat. and she got me the screwtape letters like i asked, and this book that’s something about Ireland… I forget the title, but it’s a true story about this guy who made a drunken bet that he couldn’t walk around the perimeter of Ireland carrying a fridge in 1 month. my mom figured since i want to go to Dublin, it would be cool. she heard about it on NPR and it’s supposed to be really funny. So now i have stuff to read! I can continue to put off reading The fellowship of the Ring lol.

so now i dunno what i’m doing, i’m starving tho since me and Muhammed ate at like 4:30 LOL. we had to be back at his apt to let his friend in at 6 so we ate early…and i was starving anyway, of course.
