i KNEW there was something good about today. i gave blood. it’s a great way to do something good without having to actually do anything, except answer this litany of questions – haveyouevertakenbovinebeefsupplement haveyouevervisitedtheunitedkingdomhaveyouevertaken moneyforsexhaveyoueverhadsexwithapersonwhotestedpositiveforHIVhaveyouevertakenany WOISDFAXXIWOEIForWOES0GGJRIROT[GGhaveyouhadrabieshaveyoubeentoeuropesince 1980haveyoubeentoafricasince1977haveyoueverhadsexwithanybodyfromafrica…

and then they pump out your blood, and then you get cookies and/or crackers and juice. i could have sat there all afternoon, reading the paper and chatting with other donors, and the thought did cross my mind, because i could have avoided working on my play, but instead i went home and worked.

but anyway, so i potentially helped save a life today, with much effort, plus snacks and juice, so WHAT’S NOT TO BE HAPPY ABOUT??

ok then, really that’s all this time,

grace still with no expectations of anybody or anything WHATSOEVER.
