01/12/2003 Entry: "donate blood"

When you've helped someone or something out, don't you just love that warm, fuzzy feeling you get for helping them? If you do, think about donating a pint of your blood to your local Red Cross chapter. Just think about it: a pint of your blood could soon help someone who may need a transfusion while in the hospital, therefore resulting in you saving a life. Especially to Connecticut citizens, our state is in a state of a blood emergency right now. Please give. You've got nothing to lose but a pint of blood. For a list of upcoming blood drives in Connecticut, click here. And if it takes this to persuade you, the lovely old lady volunteers pamper you with lots of snacks and drinks afterwards. It's like a visit to grandma's house!

...who woulda thunk, I waited too long to make an appointment and they're all booked. I guess I'll be making a short trip to find the next nearest drive...

I passed out when I had blood a blood test when I was little. Plus I freak when I see needles coming in close range of my body, but I still end up going. haha

I'm pretty sure that if I were to donate blood I'd faint and die. It FREAKS. ME. OUT.
