Give Life

Yesterday I gave blood. Giving blood is like a mini check-up, so if you don't have health insurance, its great. Oh, and the whole blah blah blah, your civic duty thing is good too. My iron is normally low, so when I passed the iron test with flying colors without the aid of iron supplements, the assistant congratulated me and wanted to know what I'd done different. I told her I'd kicked up my fruit and vegetable intake.

I didn't mention that the entirety of my 'fruit and vegetable intake' comes from vodka/orange juice.

Full Disclosure

I need to learn that every time I find myself thinking, "This is the perfect time to have this conversation!" I need to ask myself first: How drunk am I? If the answer is any variation of "very", I should shut up. Because remember kids, buzzed pontifications are drunk pontifications.
