Trauma at the Blood Center

Yesterday, I received a call from someone at our local blood bank, asking people who have given blood before (or in my case, attempted to) to do so now, since it was the holiday season and we have to make sure all the drunk drivers who will be hurting themselves and others have enough blood or whatever. So since I had attempted to donate blood a couple of months back but the timing didn't work, I figured this was a sign for me to attempt it again.

( It was a mistake. )

On a completely unrelated tangent, you know that song "Give You Back" by Vertical Horizon? For the longest time, I thought the lyric was "give you a path." And you know, it makes so much more sense. The next line is "somewhere out of here." So wouldn't it make sense to give someone a path somewhere out of wherever? Not back. Back where, anyway? And sometimes, it totally doesn't even sound like he's saying "back." In fact, if the song title wasn't "Give You Back," I would argue for the "path" lyric. Hmph.
