Gave Blood, Got the Teeshirt

I've been trying to write longer posts lately ... or at least I've been thinking that I really should write longer posts lately. I'm guessing that writing little snacks satisfies neither the consumer nor the need of the creator to practice. It took two hours to give blood today, either because the event was understaffed or the staff was undermotivated, not because the blood drive was overattended.

On the plus side, I ran into Jim Kelly again, and I learned that he finally won the Nebula for his novella Burn. Congratulations, Jim! The man has been nominated for the Nebula nine times, so it's long overdue.
