Life vs Kiya (Life: 2 / Kiya: 0)

[kiyakotari]

Heading into a 16.5 hour shift, in about an hour, after a 6 hour break between it and the 8.5 hour shift last night. Have also started selling plasma to supplement my income, which means getting jabbed with a 17g needle and sitting in a chair for an hour or so, twice a week, to have them pull 900-something CC's of fluid out of me. I am going to develop track marks. I also need to be careful to keep my iron levels up, because as a vegetarian (pescetarian, but that's too hard to explain to people) I'm more prone to anemia than a meat-eater, and if my iron drops below 38% I can't sell my liquids. Selling the replenishable and legal parts of my body is a plus, so that would be a bad thing.

Considered selling eggs (presuming I have some), but I don't think I'm eligible because of the PCOS. Damn. That would be a lot easier (and more lucrative) than selling plasma.

All of this so that I can get together the deposit and such for the apartment I'm moving into on October 1st, and also so I can furnish it (I spent $195 yesterday at Linens-N-Things). And maybe afford a body for Jian, if I can ever decide on one.
