I've donated a few times, but it always seemed to take forever (low blood pressure, apparently). The last couple of times they had to stop half-way through because I kept clotting. They basically told me my veins are "too small" to be a useful blood donor. Alas. Big thanks to all of you that do it, btw!
Just an interesting aside..... I am TERRIFIED of needles, but only when I'm being injected with something. Blood coming out = no problem. Wierd. Guess I'd make a lousy heroin addict... :Flash:
