Blood Donor

[lostcarpark]

Just donated blood for the first time in *mumble* years.

I really meant to do so sooner, but every time I nearly got around to it, I came down with a cold.

I promise not to leave it so long next time.

If you are eligable to donate blood, I strongly recommend doing so.

Edit: Meant to say, they've stopped offering free Guinness after you donate. It was a curious anachronism that the Irish Blood Transfusion Board would advise you not to drink alcohol for 24 hours after donating, and then offer you a pint two minutes later.

i don't give blood because a vampire would have issues getting blood from me.

i have only ever had one nurse who got the vein on the first try, including the nurses in the blood clinic!. my doctor usually takes it from my hand.
