I feel like a stuck pig...

Even though I didn't bleed like one...

I *tried* to give blood today. I went through the entire ordeal - filled out the paperwork - got stuck in the finger - etc.

When I sat down in the chair I warned the guy that my veins are hard to find and he said it wouldn't be a problem.

He stuck me in the left arm and dug around for a while (boy did that feel good). Then he gave up.

He stuck me in the right arm and dug around for a while (that felt good too). Then he gave up entirely.

He apologized profusely and had to send me on my way without taking any blood.

Oink, oink.
