@PhilKeoghan ACK. How about those of us in Australia? Going to have to hide your tweets!


This office is an ice box. My fingertips are actually going numb.


Was inspired to book in for blood donation tomorrow. I know too many folks who can’t donate; figure I’d better step up in their place!


@Yarna_ The cutoff on that seems to be ’96 for Australian donations. Luckily I didn’t live in England til ’98, so I’m okay!


@carbolicious Just thinking about that makes me wince.


Received hilariously mismatched job opp from Gemteq HR spammer. I’m not a team lead or dev, & I know zero .NET. Do they even read linkedin?


@Justacogitating Aussie rules ban those who spent 6 months in UK prior to ’96. So we’re clear by two years, thankfully!


Just finished breakfast (leftover meatloaf and zucchini) and now I’m pounding water. All preparation for giving blood in an hour!


Hemoglobin checked, iron levels all good. Ready to get stuck!


Needle is in and I am being drained. New Town Hall Red Cross centre is brilliant. Comfy high-tech recliners and big TVs!


Who wants to see me and my blood? (Not gross; I swear.) http://t.co/7GzZ8pQ http://t.co/LMyfGvW


All done! Now just chillin’ til I get my cookie. That was best blood donation experience ever. Practically painless, very professional.


@knitterjp It’s those folks, but the whole center has moved to Town Hall. New place is great!
