Vegan happiness is...
...donating blood at work; being asked to (and agreeing to) participate in a two-year blood-testing study regarding the effects of animal-product consumption on blood health and disease; being able to check "Never" on each survey question, such as "How often do you consume beef?", "Fish?", "Eggs?", "Dairy products?", etc; and then, finishing and finding vegan snacks in the cantine area. YAY!
EDIT: The centers participating in the study are:
-American Red Cross Blood Services, New England Region
-The Blood Center of Southeastern Wisconsin
-Emory University, American Red Cross, Southern Region
-Hoxworth Blood Center, University of Cincinnati
-LifeSource Blood Services/Institute of Transfusion Medicine
-University of California, San Francisco/Blood Centers of the Pacific
And, a note to all those in GA--if you donate blood before 3/31/08, you can also enter into a raffle to win a cruise for 2 and 2 round-trip airline tickets!
