At the blood drive today I found out I'm actually O+, not A+ like my father (or is he?) told me. At first I thought this meant I was a miracle child, but then I was reminded that blood types are like eye colors, and I can be O even though both my parents are A. However, when I talked to my mom she said that there actually was another 10lb baby born the same day as me in the hospital way back in 1985, and it's quite conceivable that we were switched. If only ...
A student at the blood drive said, "Good thing your father didn't say 'I'm positive you're A positive.'" We all laughed at such a corny joke, but then I said, "Wait, actually, he did."

What a cool blood picture. I didn't know there was blood in the grass. I look forward to hearing more blood drive stories from you. Perhaps even romantic ones....?
This was a funny post. You are a funny guy
I thought they were fruit loops.
I am on a diet, you know. Wait! Who just poured that mug of hot chocolate down my throat! Anna's cheating!
Michael, this is very perplexing - are you sure that two A type parents can have an O child? I think it's possible, but the odds are really 10,000,000,000 to .000001. Ask yourself, do you feel lucky? I am not really little riri.
