Be nice to me, I gave blood today!

Everything went without a hitch at the Red Cross today. But I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't a little concerned about getting a letter in the mail in the next week or so where I'm maligned for donating. As long as I don't test positive for HepB (and I have no idea why I would), I don't think the Red Cross would say anything if my records from Nashville are merged with this region's database. So I'm back on track to 10 gallons. Today was my 45th pint...35 more to go. I can donate every 56 days, so sometime around the end of 2012 is when I should hit the mark

Blood is at a critical shortage. They have a half-day's supply of blood for everything but A (which they have a day and a half).
*******************************

I will be going back on June 29th...which is...on a Friday, so if anyone wants to join me that day, they are open for donations between 7:30am and 3:30pm. I am willing to be there as early as 9am and willing to join folks as late as close to when they close. I was in and out of there in about 45 minutes today with next to no wait.

A reminder post will be made during the week before I donate again.

Hell, don't wait for me; go ahead and donate today!

Oh, and I got a cool baseball cap and t-shirt along with the usual free snacks and beverages!
