Pie Day

Almost fifty people donated blood today, and most of them came in the four hours Pure Soul and I were there. There were so many people that they had to wait for a bed two and three at a time. According to one of the nurses, a swing is to be expected. Remember: last week there were less than a dozen. Also, last week ther wasn't pie. I guess Martin's occasionally donates food to the canteen, and this time everyone who even tried to donate blood got to take home a pumpkin pie. Most of us marveled at how well they came out; there was hardly any cracking on the surfaces, but they were all toasty golden brown. On a more related note, we got to fold t-shirts for the days that don't have pie.
