Saving lives

Here we go, a blog update!  (You're welcome.)

So, I saved 3 lives today.  No big deal.

I never get nervous about donating blood.  NEVER.
(Lies.)

Today I donated blood.  Usually this is noooo problemo for me.  No throwing up, no passing out, no collapsed veins, no bruising, nada.  Today was mostly ok, except I was so dehydrated that I had to sit in the little snack area for half an hour after I donated because I was a liiiiiiitle out of it.  The nice phlebotomists and ladies who hand out treats kept trying to talk to me, but I was a teensy bit dazed and confused, so they made me sip juice and recline until I was acting like a relatively normal human being.  While I was acting pretty weird and staring off into space/dropping my chin to my chest/blinking slowwwwwly, I am proud to say that I am still maintaining my perfect record of never passing out or crying during the blood donation process.  Booyah.  I will be back to donate again in 8 weeks.  And YOU should donate too! (If you find yourself able to do so.)
