Wayne brought doughnuts because it is his last day with us. He was on loan from another division, for two weeks, while they were shut down. I had a chocolate frosted creme filled one. It turned out to have that creme that is more like frosting, instead of the usual pudding like stuff.
Now I can't give blood, because of all the sugar in my blood. At least that's my story. They're having a blood drive, but I'm not giving. I imagine I would pass out and not wake up for fifteen minutes, and then be all woozy and falling down the rest of the day. I suppose that's wrong of me. I know it is important. I just... won't.
Too bad it's not closer to the end of the day. I could give blood and then go out and get really drunk really quick. I'd be a real cheap date.

I had a bruise all over my forearm, I was woozy, and they kept making me lay down. I finally insisted on going home because the oreo cookies and juice weren't making me feel any better either. I just wanted to get out of there. I hope somebody benefited fron the pint they got from me that day. I put a lot of effort into it!
Cheap easy date, eh? *evil grin* And that's different than normal because.....

Unfortunately, I've been discouraged by friends and family who think I couldn't do it anyway because of all the meds I take and/or medical conditions. I thought it'd be a good way to learn my blood type since my doctors won't order a typing.
