Yes I Can!!

Well, who would've thought I'd get to this point!! I donated blood today! Apparently I barely managed to squeeze past their requirements and that if I wanted to continue donating, I must maintain my weight as it is right now. I don't think that will be hard. It's harder to lose the last 5 pounds you want to get rid off.

It was an interesting experience though! I managed not to pass out. I guess it helps when you don't look at that big honking needle they poke in your arm. It was definitely worth it and I wouldn't think twice about donating again.
