took yesterday as a sick day and basically ate, drank fluids and slept. feeling better today, but i can tell that it'll be a rest day today too, because i still feel a little wiped out and if i attempt any physical activity, i'll only mess myself up more...

next week, i'll have to do my running in late afternoon/evening (during the work week) but i'll still be able to do the morning long runs on the weekends. once i have access to a treadmill, i'll alternate weeks.

noone from the blood donor office ever called after i filed a report. i love that i'm hounded to donate and then once they get my blood, they could care less what happens to me. in fact, i've been thinking about donating blood, being an organ donor, and bone marrow donor...

-i wonder how much blood goes to stupid-ass drivers who cause accidents.
-i wonder how many organs go to people who spent their lives killing their organs by making poor choices like doing drugs and consuming too much alcohol...
-i would really be upset if my organs went to such a person, when there are so many who suffer because nature dealt them a bad hand...

blood is blood. organs are organs. and, i guess, as a healthy human, i can spare the blood, and hopefully keep my organs intact so if/when i croak, they are usuable.

people who don't ever donate need to step up to the plate.

otherwise, i'm feeling okay. will resume training tomorrow...
ciao&meow.

    Hello....I noticed I'm no longer listed as a 'friend' of franny's. And that's ok...just a little sad since I have been reading your diary for a few years.

    Be well
