The Red Cross held a blood drive @ First Baptist Church of the Islands yesterday. I gave- very slowly- but a full bag nonetheless. Aside from the complimentary juice and cookies (NutterButter!) they gave me something in return:
That's right, a BobbleHead!
I had a choice between an apron, a book tote, a cd visor wallet or Buddy.
I got the last Buddy.
Everyone else in the room (a number of them goofy youth pastor types) were so envious.
It was great.
Still, don't you think a vampire would be a better mascot for this particular endeavor?
(my kids didn't think that was funny either- but they did want to know why he wasn't an ELF)
