"Dad, I gave blood today."
"You did WHAT?!?"
Turns out, my one selfless deed of the season is in question because my father thought I finally made good on my promise to sell some plasma. Nope, just some blood. Didn't even sell it- I gave it away.
Even after fielding his questions and assuring him this was a gesture of holiday kindness for the New York Blood Center, he's still skeptical.
That will teach me to make broad statements. In the meantime, may your holiday be filled with a covert/not-so-covert snogging session with Hugh Grant and all the merriment you wish.
