An Hour

Donating today

Right arm, yellow ring, blue 7, booth 5, machine 16

This is maybe the second time

I’ve had literally no wait

If anything, less than a wait

Because I was walking in at 10:29

For my 10:30 appointment

& I didn’t even have time to sit down

Before they called my name

Now it’s 10:39

& I’ve already been in the bed for 3 minutes

Meaning even the check-in screening

Where they check all my vitals

Making sure I’m healthy enough to donate

Even that went fast

So, depending on how quick I get pricked

I might actually be in & out in under an hour

It’s 10:55

& I’m pumping

A little bit of a wait here

But I was still in the waiting room last time

So I’m not complaining

I just might not get out in under an hour

Something nice is that

My phone service is working again today

So hopefully this trend continues

Walking out at 11:30

So looks like I did get it done in an hour
