Overload

So today I went and donated my blood!  I love to donate, makes me feel like a hero!!!  This was my 12 time donating.  I am 4 more donations away from 2 gallons!  I have donated in 3 different states too, Arizona, California and Colorado!

The sucky part is this donatin seemed to have taken more out of me than usual.  After I was donating I stayed in the canteen area longer than I usualy do.  After just walking a short distance I had a head ache and I had to take a break.  Good thing Sara (my sis) called me.  It took longer than usual to walk to the restaurants. I was glad I had water with me.  I still haven't gotten rid of the head ache.  I just hope I don't get sick cause then I have to call Bonfils...I don't know what will happen to my blood then.  I just hope its cause I am a bit more tired than usual.

I was able to grab some pictures while I was out.
A quick shot of a bear. There seem to be several bear statues int he Denver West area..I wonder why that is?
I felt exactly like that bear by the time I had walked from Bonfils to Tokyo Joe's.
Look flowers...NOT in my backyard XD  I finished up my convo with my sis and I quickly snapped this pic before running off to over fill my belly.  Food good!

So like always, and mostly because I can't help myself I entered the Barnes & Noble a few doors down from Tokyo Joe's.  I was of course making a b-line for the manga (I only had so much time until my bus came) and I walked passed the bargain books and I notice something out of the corner of my eye.  A very familiar cover to a certain book I have been wanting for years and was not quite sure I would ever get a chance to own.  I walked about 5 steps before it really clicked and I stopped and promptly turned around. Just my luck I had found Gorillaz Rise of the Ogre; Now how much was it?? $7.85  I squeeed.  I had literally been looking at buying the book just the night before on Amazon thinking.  I grabbed the second one in (the first one looked like it had been looked at a few times.  It took everything in me to contain myself.  I knew I had a big dumb grin on my face.  What can I say I am a fan.  I have had Stylo on repeat for the past 2 days (and it was playing in my ears at the moment too)  I held the hardbound heavily discounted book of [I'm sure was filled with complete] awesome and walked to the cashier, completely forgetting the manga. 
At the time of this blog I am only on page 37 but I am in love!!  I just love how this animated fake band is telling their fans of their past from their point of view, with Murdoc at the reigns.  I am on very happy fangirl right now!!!

Oh right pictures...
HA! you thought it was going to be of the book! Nope.
I call this one downtown.  There is just something about the bus stop at 16th and Lawrence that inspires me to take pics of my surroundings.

Until tomorrow!!
