I was a little worried about having the temp right, although I feel like taking the temp with a thermometer might have taken an unusual amount of time. It takes extra time to be very deliberate and quiet anyway.
Next time you sub, take note: "Stick-on" baby forehead temp strips (sold at most chain drug stores) work just as well as a digital thermometer. They are actually identical to the temp strips used at the collection facility. While they may not be as accurate to the "nth" degree as a digital unit, they are obviously accurate enough to merit continued use by the facilities.

Just stick the strip onto the bottle before you go to the facility, and thats one less item that you have to carry into the bathroom stall.
