For the love of science...and easy money!

So I'd have to say I'm a sucker for research trials. Ya know that movie Dick and Jane, where they are so broke Jane has to go in and do studies and she walks out with fat lips, that's gonna happen to me someday. In college I used to donate plasma on a regular basis for some extra cash, I don't mind needles so much, and what am I doing with all that extra plasma?? They can have it! About a year ago I went in for Lexi's check up, and they wanted me to put her in a study monitering the effects of a shot they were already going to give her, so I signed up for that. And while the lady was giving me that information, she signed me up for a birth control study as well. So I took their pill for about a year, which worked out just fine and I made $300 doing it. But since I'm now trying to get pregnant I signed up for a new study to see how quickly their tools and tricks (and of course the help of my husband) can get me pregnant. Sure, why not! I'll fill out their questionaire and make a couple hundred bucks doing what I was going to do anyway. I think these research trials are awesome!
