Five-Stack Special

So I donated blood last week. The little divot that they’ve made in my left arm has yet to go away, but it’s subsiding.

I donated my blood to one of (?) the major blood donation organizations in my area, the Blood Centers of the Pacific, which has a point program for donations. It seems I get 200 points for every appointment I show up to: 100 for donating, and 100 for keeping the appointment.

One of the things I can do with my points is obtain a coupon for a free fresh pint of Baskin-Robbins ice cream. That’s 200 points.

I’ve made two donations thus far.

Be right back, increasing my blood sugar level and my calcium intake while munching on a quart of ice cream in chilly weather.
