Thanks, Guys. I’m Really Loving The New Flat Screen.
November 11th, 2007
I kid, I kid.
For those of you who worried Christian Finnegan might be onto something when he joked at my party that you were all suckers whose donations had actually funded a new flat screen TV for me: Good news! Your generation contributions are finally en route to Global Volunteers. I just paid the balance of my service program fee, and the ball is rolling to January 5.
I also heard from the organization that 11 other volunteers are signed on, with a mix of ages and backgrounds. To borrow a phrase from someone I know, that’s aces. Seriously, I’m glad I waited for a bigger crew. I’m really looking forward to meeting everyone.
And so, with the sale of a purple fleece poncho and some rattan patio furniture our buyer informed us was not, in fact, rattan (he was thrilled with the piece anyhow)…onward we go, just spitting distance from the fundraising goal.
Next up: A visit to the doctor’s office for my travel vaccinations. Oh, happy day.
