But only because the last 2 times I gave I passed out AND I seem to have small veins and because of that I can never fill up an entire bag. <BR/><BR/>I used to have a weird quirk that none of my good could be touching. If I had chicken, potatoes and green beans, none of them could touch each other and I had to eat all the chicken first, then all the potatoes, then the green beans.

They do it EVEN THOUGH I have proved to them (by having 2 cars leave the same point at the same time to arrive at the same destination) that doing the left turn is far faster than driving 4000 extra miles.

The other cars may not (and likely have no idea) know they are racing me, but I have to be first out. I am getting better about this....but I used to be horrible.

Now, if were talking bulb life savings, that may be different. I use CFL's and they have been a GREAT contributor to lowering my electric bill. However, the ballasts in the bulbs aren't that great at handling the stress of constant on/off switching throughout the day. In that case, it's best to leave them on.<BR/><BR/>On the giving blood thing, I donated one time since moving here and those people won't leave me the hell alone. I used to get phone calls at least twice a week til finally I told them to take me off their contact list and I'd show up when I felt like it.
