As The World Turns

I donated blood today. Went to sleep. Woke up and Stargate: Atlantis was canceled.

What?

Being on set the day your show is canceled is something I can only imagine in my worst nightmares. I can't imagine it being a very fun day for the cast/crew. I've never really thought of it that way... I mean, usually, I look at it from a viewer perspective and go 'eh, I'll survive', but today it kind of hit me that when things like this happen, people loose their jobs. So, like, 200 people were fired today.

Well, I won't feel too bad. I'm sure they'll all survive.

Back to the blood donating thing... Usually, I feel perfectly fine after donating blood. Today, not so much. First time ever feeling yucky for me. I felt a little light headed and when I went home, I pretty much conked out. My heart is kinda race-y right now and I'm dizzy and I feel weak. Yuck. Whenever I donate, they always try to tell me that my heartbeat is irregular and I always tell them that I'm fine and that my doctor hasn't done so much as shrug over it when listening to my chest. But, the way my heart is fluttering and thumping right now, I think I'll ask him to check it out the next time I see him.
