I gave blood today for the first time. Even though I knew I shouldn't be, I was really nervous beforehand. They had to reboot the computer over three times to get me registered, and I was starting to think it was a sign that I shouldn't give. It finally went through and I ended up having no problems, although I took longer than average to finish.
I had a good experience and highly recommend everyone do it.

Oh, bloodletting. For me, it's a fun way to add to my "Oh, the places you will vomit" book. The winner so far is JC Penney, under a rack of clothes, in the corner, where I crawled in my weak and about-to-faint state after giving blood.
I think the last time I went, my pulse was too high even after they tried to calm me down. But I'm glad you can give!
