Pokes

So life is good.  My new job is pretty awesome.
Even though my primary area of expertise is up front screening donors and poking fingers...etc...I have already done a blood draw!
 I think I scared the crap out of the lady I did it to for the first time.
There were two people hovering over her, one knew what she was doing (the trainer), and the other had no clue (the trainee...aka me.) The poor woman asked me how many times I had done this before and saying, "Oh this is my first time!" with a smile on my face did not help in the least to calm her nerves...
Afterwards she said it didn't hurt at all, and that I did great, but I still feel bad for being the smiling inexperienced girl with a needle.

The new apartment is fantastic....ly small.  But still good.  Its pretty social out in these parts, and I have already been invited to a few game nights :)
I live on the first floor, which is the only floor with out air conditioning.  It keeps the utilities down, but  boy everyone is walking around with a sweaty forehead down here!

School starts in a few days....not quite  ready to process that yet...time is flying so stinking fast!  I can't believe another summer has already come and gone....and this one was yet again nothing like any of the other ones that came before.  My life is always full of surprises and blessings, I can't wait to see whats hiding just around the corner with the new semester comin' up!

Cheers! :)
