Bloody Saturday

|

Today was blood day. Emilie and I went to United Blood Services and made a donation. I made a double donation, but Emilie just couldn't bring herself to do it - she stuck with the traditional whole blood donation. I lucked out today because I was able to enjoy three needle sticks instead of the usual two. They stuck me once to get the blood from my finger for the iron sample, which is okay, but they messed up when they went to stick the needle in my arm. The girl who prepped the bags wasn't very experienced with the double donation so she forgot to clamp one of the tubes, which let saline leak into the sample blood collection bag. To get the sample they had to put a needle in one arm to collect the samples while they were drawing blood from my other arm. I went home full of holes.

We finally saw Pirates of the Carribean. We've been planning on seeing it for a while now but finally just went. It was a good movie. I'm glad we finally saw it.
