Good deed by the drama queen

A quick word of advice. If you're scheduled to give blood in the morning, make sure to get a good night's sleep as well as a good breakfast with PLENTY of fluids. I kinda screwed this up on Saturday and almost took a nice belly flop trying to get to my cookie and juice. Thankfully, another donor saw me start to swoon and got someone over to help me to a cot. It was a little embarrassing having to lie down right at the entrance while swathed in cold towels. Apparently I sweat like a maniac when my blood pressure crashes.

Ah well, at least I didn't hoard my spare pint. Just need to be a little smarter about it.
