Do good things

So today Kat and I gave blood, I'm A- and she's A+, but then she's always been smarter than me. I didn't pass out. Yay! It's been at least 3 years since I last gave blood. Blood is in high demand at the end of the year. There are lots of car accidents and surgeries. Not sure if the two are related, but I know the later has to do with crappy health care coverage. Anyway, if you are in to giving blood, now is a good time. If not, consider helping out an animal shelter that's in deep financial trouble (link via This Modern World). Doing good things, whatever the scale, makes the world a better place to live.
