Interstate Kaiser had no wireless internet.<BR/><BR/>I did have knitting with me, but it was just about the longest 4 hours of my life, in part because every hour I had to go get jabbed with a needle.<BR/><BR/>My advice: get all the blood draws from the same arm. Makes that arm unusable, the other one is A-OK.<BR/><BR/>Also, bring something from Pix for afterwardsStephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12350513605913924754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-75242888040473710182009-03-27T12:08:00.000-07:002009-03-27T12:08:00.000-07:00i could hardly finish mine.but maybe its because i...i could hardly finish mine.<BR/><BR/>but maybe its because it was warmer than room temp.<BR/><BR/>n.a.s.t.y.<BR/><BR/>and yes, i would have stopped to take a picture too.<BR/><BR/>hee hee heeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-36480947644459709752009-03-27T08:56:00.001-07:002009-03-27T08:56:00.001-07:00Um, yeah.

And I must admit - I'm so jealous you can drink oj while pregnant - the smallest sip of it gave me terrible heartburn - man I missed that during my whole pregnancy!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05615149112130152767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-58840460259821584702009-03-27T08:56:00.000-07:002009-03-27T08:56:00.000-07:00Oh god, I had to do the 3 hour once - before I was...Oh god, I had to do the 3 hour once - before I was pregnant. It. was. hellish. I'm so sorry. <BR/><BR/>I'm hypoglycemic though, so it's sort of an extra hell for me - headaches, the shakes, the sweats. <BR/><BR/>In fact every time I have to fast for something, it's a special sort of dread. <BR/><BR/>And ugh - just looking at that orange drink made a little nauseated.<BR/><BR/>Sorry about the anemia too.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864909952004392637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21634138.post-8976524004210145082009-03-27T07:48:00.000-07:002009-03-27T07:48:00.000-07:00Was it cold at least?
