the lotus leaves will set you on a slumber sweet and sound

This is a story about how cool I am.

I went to a blood donor session today, gave blood, blah blah. ("Wow, you have really slow blood!" "Yes. Yes, I'm told this with fascination every time.")

Finished, was asked if I ever had any problems afterwards, told them no, sat up and fainted. Which I have never done before.

Lying there feeling like crap, my first coherent thought was, "Hey! I can use this in a fic! :D"

...I am so totally cool.

Hehehe, when I donate they are always surprised that mine flows so fast. :D

Hope you feel okay now! :)

"Hey! I can use this in a fic! :D"
*rubs hands* and: To the lengths whumpers go in order to improve their fic. :P ;)

Pfff, people with fast blood :P I tend to have nurses coming up to me at intervals and going, "Wow, your blood is REALLY SLOW!" :P Every single time. I find it really amusing (and I've started warning them when they put the needle in that this is going to happen).

And yeah, I'm fine now :) Actually, I was kind of surprised that so many of the fic cliches about fainting (which I totally use all the time) are actually true XD
