I just gave blood and feel good about it

Today I did my little part to help someone who in the future needs some blood. It makes me feel good to know that the 400 ml of red blood cells (or whatever it is they took during the procedure where they recirculate your blood back in to your body... I want to say pherisis, but am sure that isn't exactly right) will make the world a better place for a person. These days it's not always easy to find a way to help that doesn't require time or energy that I don't always have, so I was very happy to be given the opportunity to do this during working hours. They actually come to our building which houses about 900 state government workers. The place was buzzing with excitement... well maybe that was the sound of the blood exchange machines. Another good thing? Gotta give them credit for their awesomely positive attitude and Nutter-Butter cookies!!! (my favorite!)
