Since my 11:00 client was a no-show...
Oct. 22nd, 2002 11:43 am( I bring you a survey about LJ! )
Today at lunch, I'm headed down to the downtown Faith Mission location for a relay race/obstacle course. Hee. This United Way kickoff week is really cracking me up. There's a bake sale tomorrow and a pizza party on Friday. I am such a team player gooberschmuck.
I went back and forth about donating to the United Way from my paycheck. I don't like the United Way on principle because they fund the Boy Scouts. I still have issues with the Boy Scouts, not only because they discriminate against LGBT people, but because I used to work for the National Council and I am appalled that people that I gave my energy and sweat to would continue to support this. UGH! But then the conundrum is that my workplace gets big money from the United Way... so I caved. I'll give $50 this year - $40 for Lutheran Social Services and $10 for the Columbus AIDS Task Force. I would give them more, but I raised $250 for them in the AIDSwalk this summer.
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it! Anyone going to MEETUP tonight?
