GIVEBLOOD

Today, I donated blood. It was real fun, and I’m sure it will be really rewarding. In the future, I plan on giving more blood. You might say, “Dan, I thought you were stingy!” But… remember… blood is free. And I don’t mind passing on free stuff to other people, especially if they need it too. Well, that and the fact that the Red Cross gave me… 3 bags of cookies, 1 Coke, 3 Livestrong-like GIVEBLOOD bands, 3 bumper stickers, 3 stickers, and 1 T-shirt. Red Cross, I heart you!
These past few school events have been fun. There was the mulch sale–I like flexing my brawn. And then there was Jazzercise with Kevin and Mike. Okay, we didn’t stay that long, but it was… dare I say… “amusing.” And it was hard too. I sweated like a pig in Jazzercise.
So… give blood! It might make you a little tired and dizzy especially during a vball game, but hey, that’s OK! I can’t believe how some people took 25 minutes to draw blood (cough, Tyler!). It only took me 1.5 minutes. I like watching the blood flow from my body and into a baggie and then also 5 tubie things.
Oh, and if you haven’t noticed… added some links to the top of gallery– kinda fun to click and see what comes up!
