if you've had two or more pregnancies please volunteer when you donate blood to do the HLA screening, it's apparently something that will be able to help those patients who have had multiple transfusions and are having trouble with the transfusions being rejected. they don't take any more blood, but you might be able to save more lives.
 
You know what sucks about giving blood? You have to wait one year after getting a tattoo. I got a tattoo 1-1/2 years ago with the thought that I would add onto it once a year until finished, or about 3 years... It's not very big and in the same place Tag's tattoo is...that FREAKED ME OUT!

It took me three years to decide what I wanted, design it and get the tattoo installed (hehehehe), and I didn't consider at the time that I would no longer be able to donate blood. I liked donating blood .... and the subsequent free quart of Baskin Robbins ice cream that comes with it!

But I guess my vanity is stronger than I thought, however I only have one more installment left.

If you can donate, you really, really should.

Its taking you three years to get one tattoo?? That blows my mind.

I'm up to ten tattoos and four (used to be five) piercings, and I've gotten those over the past eight years.
 
HEY, I have piercings, two in each ear for a total of four!

My tattoo was well planned and thought-out because I'm a prissy control freak who can't bear to live with regret. ;)

My kiddies' names are there, and next year I'll add my husband's name and a halo, or possibly a pitchfork depending on how the year goes. :p

So...whatcha got stamped on ya?

sputnick-y design (just something I doodled one day) -- belly button

girl in a martini glass -- right ankle (outside)

hot stuff (old comic character, little devil made by the same people as Casper) -- left ankle (outside)

"What Nourishes Me, Destroys Me" (English translation of Angie's Latin tattoo - cheesy, I know, but I like it) -- base of spine

X (punk band) logo -- right hip

Stray Cats logo -- right hip

"I sent my soul..." (quote from signature) -- left shoulder blade

"When she is good, she is very very good. But when she is bad, she's even better." -- right wrist

"Swinger" (from the 1960's Dodge Dart Swinger logo) -- left ankle (inside)

dotted square (Pulp Fiction reference that I thought was oh so clever at the time) -- right ankle (inside)

The piercings are in the tongue, navel, and.....elsewhere.

How's that for too damned much information???
 
What a brave soul you are!!! Some people hide behind stuff, sounds like you don't, I admire that.

So, does your piercing, if it's where I think it is, make a difference? YIKES! I don't know if I really wanna know, and maybe that is for another forum...

My daughter has pierced herself a couple of times -- belly, eyebrow and bottom lip. The only one she kept was her lip. She has a tat too, a cool lightening bolt on base of spine, about one inch thick and six inches long, another BRAVE soul, ouch.

P.S. Thanks for your "too much information". And NO, it isn't.

RejoiceinYOU!
 
So, here I have sat for pretty much ALL DAY, posting responses and asking questions, and nothing has been done about my surroundings. I ate cookies for lunch and drank way too many diet vanilla cokes, so it's time to pay attention to those things that will survive long after on-line entertainment turns into more than an occassional hobby...

Anyone else ever get in the shower and clean up just before the parents/wife/hubby/kids arrive? Just sick...but FUN!

GO KINGS!
 
I didn't want this thread to die, so I thought I'd share a little story.

Once upon a time, I was walking down the street and I rolled my ankle.....














because I was terrified of my shoes!

The End

G3 - I need your mailing address. And do you prefer invoices or just plain bills? I'll try not to spend too much on the new keyboard.
 
i'm having a bad day... budget cuts caused sac state to reduce classes, class registration priority goes senior, junior, freshmen then sophmore (which i am), and fees to classes are up. This leads to me being deprived of a semester of college :( and has left me with a crushed spirit..

huh? they're giving priority to freshmen over sophmores? that just doesn't make sense. lets see, students who may have already picked their major don't get priority over those who might not have even thought about it yet...just lame...
 
The Wire is a really really good show, and I hope HBO brings it back for another season. Even though I don't own HBO and would buy/rent the DVD set rather than get HBO :D
 
One of my projects at work tonight was to work on the 7th Heaven episode airing on Valentine's Day. And oh man.......it's 7th Heaven..........SINGS! It has to be seen to be believed. I sat at my work bench stupefied at this bizarrely compelling piece of work I was watching. I kept thinking of the scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail where the guy in the castle was waiting to break out into song. As soon as the musical cues kicked in, I had to brace myself to the seat to withstand the onslaught of entertainment. The only other time in recent memory that I've watched something slackjawed with disbelief was in "The Postman" with Kevin Costner when people started treating the postman as some sort of heavenly martyr. And I actually have a soft spot for that movie, so perhaps I feel the same for this episode. I wouldn't call it "bad." If they had played it totally straight, then perhaps I would. I don't know what to call it though. But it did make an entertaining end to my shift.




C'mon---look at these pictures and tell me how you cannot possibly feel tempted to see this play out?
 
One of these days, I am going to work in a nice, friendly office where my group is not excluded from lunch invitations, birthday celebrations (after being asked to sign the birthday card, mind you), and the like. I hate this place!!!

Have you ever noticed how much flip phones look like the old communicators from the original Star Trek series?
 
I'm borrowing my mom's laptop until my pc gets fixed. she told me not to install anything on it but i just installed aim. It's been so long since i've chatted with my friends on aim who are away at other colleges. I feel awful because of it.
 
I made the most sinfully delicious pasta known to man for dinner tonight. Almost better than...well, you know how that ends.
