The picture is an awful quality. I know, and I apologize.
But I still wanted to put it up because it was a big event of the past week.
I gave blood for the first time, and though I cried the entire time the needle was in (I'm a wimp, what can I say?), I'm very proud of myself for doing it.
Three lives saved!

March 1995. At my plant, there was to be a blood drive to coincide with St. Patrick's Day that year. So a contest was announced a few weeks beforehand calling for company employees to come up with a winning design for a shirt to be given away to blood donors that day.
Most people know that the usual amount of blood to donate is a pint (half of a quart, about 473 ml). Coincidentally, a pint is also a common amount for beer or ale. So, I came up with a little play on words - "Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a Pint - Give BLOOD!" Complete with an old leprechaun figure to make the announcement.
Believe it or not, it was NOT the winning entry! I don't even remember what design was chosen for the t-shirts.
One of the shirt selection committee members confided to me that some of the others in the committee didn't think that there should be a reference to drinking liquor on the shirt!
BUT, I thought that the design and punchline was too good to overlook, so I had a few silk-screened for about three dozen of my friends who agreed that my theme was better.
The two women above modeling the shirts were my favorite food servers at a local restaurant in Harbor City where we enjoyed lunch often. Of the photos I took that day of my friends wearing my 'Give Blood' shirts, my friends Kelly and Lauri above were without a doubt the most photogenic!
I gave B+ blood

I am not fond of the Lorna Doone cookies they offer
afterwards. The New York Blood Center claims Lorna
Doones are a cherished tradition.
