A Date with Dracula.

Taking a seat in the back I pull out my laptop. Trying to find something to read as I wait for my appointment with the bloodsuckers. That's right kids, I went to the blood bank and let me tell you: I had way to much fun. There were a lot of girls that I knew who were ahead of me in line, so I took it as my God given duty to torture them about the blood. I said things such as:

"Watch out for the fangs!"
"The needle is This Long! [I made a space between my hands at the length of a cubit]"
"It won't hurt...That much"
"You know, they're prone to miss a few times."

Finnally it was my turn; I jumped up on blue lawnchairish gurny and waited for the vampire to stick me. I reaffirmed a very important truth wile I sat there letting her probe my arms: be nice and respectful to the person who hold the needle. She probed, she swabbed, she made me squeeze a little red ball in the shape of a blood drop (that's some sick humor) and then, she pulled out the needle.
"Mother" quietly escaped my lips as she readied herself to shove it in. It was like a car wreck: you didn't want to watch, but you couldn't help it. It was then as the first drops of blood streamed down the tube I realized something very exciting: I am my very own discovery channel special!

I also realized that I drink to much coffee. To much caffeine in the blood will constrict the veins. I realized this because they couldn't get the full pint. When I demanded that they put every drop back another universal truth was revealed to me: the back of a clipboard hurts!

In Other News:
Its cold! I mean Really Flippin Cold! It was 39 degrees this morning when I got up for classes. And its 49 degrees now! This is more like October, more like fall! I'm really looking forward to the winter; I hope it snows a lot!

I got this great program last night called Pisca. Its the most amazing free program I have ever seen! I was playing with a few pictures last night. I made some pictures look like drawings, some I made look old, aged, and 1800ish, and some I just messed with (click my profile picture).

I sat and talked with the president of Wayne State College today at lunch. The man is certainly interesting. He told a lot of great stories about his academic life. It made for a great lunch.

Oh and Amy, if you ever read this: The bandage dracula gave me was pink, hot pink! :-)
