I can still feel the spot where the blood ran down.

The ghostly warm caress of life leaving my body.

If I sit in the right position I can feel it all again.

Weak and lightheaded.

Pain and simple pleasure.

It's so cold. So cold there, but that spot was so warm.

I feel the nerves tumble over in my belly.

I feel dizzy and then suddenly, it's over.

I get up, I walk away, and I lay down for a very long time.
My cousin is in the hospital right now. They're not sure what's wrong with her and they're testing her for a lot of different things.

She's bleeding way more than any human should normally bleed. She even woke up in her hospital bed covered in her own blood (great of the doctors and nurses not to notice, right?)

They've been having to give her blood left and right which as you can imagine gets pretty expensive. Thankfully the hospital gave us a solution.

For every bag of blood we donate in her name, she gets one free.



SOOOOOO I dragged my happy ass down the the blood bank.

I am terrified of needles. I mean, TERRIFIED. I can barely watch injections on T.V. let alone watch them stick me.

BUT I love my cousin and I sometimes get the inkling to save a life so I do make efforts from time to time to donate my blood.

I have tiny veins, adding to the calamity of me trying to sit in the chair and not pass out while they find a suitable place to stab me and suck out my life force.

This time was particularly calming however.

Maybe it was because I was already in a pretty lucid state after my near panic attack in the screening room or maybe it was because I knew I was helping my cousin... whatever it was, I was able to sit calmly in the chair and just relax.

It was a pretty strange sensation with the tube wrapping around my wrist. My skin was cold but the blood was warm and it almost felt like a person was touching me very gently there.

Thinking back on it now though, I get all panic filled and dizzy again.
