Donating Blood and Volleyball


Well last night my sister and I decided to go donate blood. I try and do it frequently because apparently my blood (O negative) is the stuff that can be given to anyone, regardless of their blood type or rh factor (positive or negative) It was my sister's first time going. We got through it... but it wasn't a very plesant experience. Both she and I have not been feeling the best today. However, right afterwards I was foolish enough to go to the ward co-ed volleyball game. I'm the captain so instead of playing I just captained and line judged. I started feeling lightheaded during the game since I was yelling and cheering so loud... but it didn't show its effects until I got home. I slept for a REALLY long time (almost ten hours) before I woke up this morning. I felt much better, however the moral for this story is: Blood loss and volleyball do not mix :-)
