I swam yesterday at lunchtime and it was co-co-cooooold. \u00a0And it stayed cold – I never did get used to it. \u00a0I guess it’s a combination of the hot water being turned off in the building and the high temp outside for\u00a0comparison\u00a0– but it was really uncomfortable. \u00a0I got in my laps, swam pretty well, and got the heck out of there. \u00a0Since the hot water is off – I skipped the shower and just got some lunch and went back to work.<\/p>\n
Yesterday evening I went to give blood. \u00a0I had signed up for a double-red and after a little confusion about if I was eligible, I was hooked up to the machine and on my way. \u00a0No real problems to report, but it was a little weird. \u00a0I got chilled when the plasma and saline were pumped back into me and I got a weird taste in my mouth from the anti-coagulant. \u00a0It also made my lips tingle. \u00a0The woman in charge of the machine offered me some Tums and that helped counter-act it.<\/p>\n
My room-mate had the air conditioning on when I got home and I was a little chilly around the apartment that evening. \u00a0Weird that in the middle of summer – I got chilled to the bone three times in one day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
