And that would be the bone marrow bank, because they just got a bunch new investors. Last night at TNT’s Cause for Celebration, I signed up to have my bone marrow typed and got put in the National Bone Marrow Program. Apparently if I’m a match for someone, I’ll get a giant needle sawing into my pelvic bone to extract my marrow. MMMM! But that’s like a 1 in 20,000 chance or something. Oh well, I guess saving lives is not pleasant work…but it’s worth it.
I also am staying home from work today because I woke up feeling sick and barfing all over the place. Can’t really figure out what’s going on, but maybe it was the catered food from the event last night. The thing was, it was so delicious — basil mozzarella tomato skewers, beef peanut satay, portobello shrooms, spinach frittata bites. Anyway, here are some pics from the festivities:
Al and me. The left half of my face was still numb at this point from novocaine from a filling I had earlier in the day...I'm surprised there's no visible drool glistening on my face.
Pammy and Karla with her cute new haircut
Manager Leslie
Philip, the man responsible for most of the unflattering pictures of me that end up online (he is EVERYWHERE)
Josi & Kelsey
TFM & K (aka Top Fundraiser Megan and Kristen)
fillin' out paperwork, enjoyin' the free booze
Chelsea & Al
Watch out for these goofballs: Al "wants to rock and roll all night" and Trish "Have you seen her chest?" Hart
the food that could have possibly been responsible for me hating my life in the bathroom this morning
I think the best part of these events is seeing people in normal everyday grown-up clothes, instead of in sweaty running gear. We are a pretty sexy bunch.
