That's weird.
I donate often enough now that I get the shortened questionnaire, they just ask me if I've been to Mexico or South America since my last donation.

I need to do this. I have a phobia about needles so I've avoided it in the past. My wife used to donate a lot but hasn't recently. You're good guys to do it or at least try. :applaud:

I can't / don't watch them stick the needle in. I can look at it once it's in, though.
The staff are pretty good at making it quick and as painless as possible.

I'd need a drink first. And during. And after. Heck, I need one now thinking about it.
You go back for extra cookies like in the episode of The Office?

If you donate, they'll let you know. Along with your blood pressure, pulse, and cholesterol... :cheers:

Considering I'll never do it, I guess this isn't an option.
(I'm also not an organ donor...)
