... until I get food money.
I'm kinda brimming with vitality; making me seriously consider taking the bus to the plasma place across the river, on a lark.
They can't give me the results of the blood sample I was required to give the last time I went there, over the phone.
I'm pretty sure they would have notified me if I had HIV or syphilis, since that would be a matter of public health -not only could I not donate, but might want to get something like that looked at, type of thing..
It would be somewhat of a gamble. If they took my plasma, I would be returning with a couple cans of Fancy feast for Harold out of the 75 bucks I would get, and if not, I'd be just about done with the whole process..
I found out that the best way to remove "forever" molecules from the bloodstream is to donate plasma and let the centrifuge pull them out, through the force of gravity. That had been the deal clincher in my deciding to give plasma donation another "spin."
Otherwise, I could just do a one day fast before returning to the keto diet that has me feeling like a million bucks..
I guess that depends on whether I stay up for the next 12 hours watching one YouTube video after another, or if I'm somehow awake and well rested by noon...
The replacement laptop has been a disappointment so far.
I thought a T460 would be better than the T420 it replaced but, 7 years newer means stripped down and minus the deprecated features like a DVD/CD player, extra USB ports, etc.
The hard drive is even solid state, so I couldn't pop the old drive in and resume computing like nothing happened.
Everything is geared towards cloud computing it seems, with less emphasis on the size of the storage device. That's just more data to loose in the event of a physical catastrophe, why not store your whole life in the cloud, where the data can be sifted through, er, in order that the AI engine can learn all about you, in order to better tailor their services to you, type of thing...
