Blood Drive

I've given blood before. Today was my second time. I hate it. The thought of a needle piercing the skin and inserting into a vein to make it gush blood makes me a bit queasy. But it's a good thing to do, so I try to do it without much thought. I did express my ambivalence about donating blood to the male nurse who was to draw my blood. He responded that that he had no such ambivalence by saying there was no way in hell that he himself would be a blood donor. Didn't really help my anxiety, but it was funny.

Anyway, not much purpose to this post other than to point out that I'm a really great guy for donating blood and a better person than all those who didn't.
