the_rckWell, I did get to sleep a bit after 2 last night. I got up this morning a bit before 8. I thought about going back to sleep, but I have so much to do today that getting started on it seemed like a good idea.
I suspect I'm catching the family cold. I have a definite earache, and that seems the most likely cause. Of course, for Scott and Cordelia both, the cold started with a sore throat, and I don't have that. I guess I'll find out.
I forgot to mention one thing in my earlier post-- I finally donated the $80 that Cordelia and her friends raised. They wanted the money to go toward water security because they studied that topic last fall and the fact that there are parts of the world where people don't have easy access to good water made a strong impression on them.
They had thought that Oxfam was doing that sort of work because another friend had talked about her mother donating to Oxfam for that, but I couldn't find any way to specify that the money should go to that when I looked at Oxfam's website. None of the specific projects seemed to be about water.
Scott suggested water.org which is an organization he's heard a lot about from the Vlog Brothers, and Cordelia said that was a good idea, so that's where I went. The only thing I wasn't pleased by was that there wasn't any way to credit the kids for the donation. Cordelia assured me that it didn't matter, but I'd have liked to put their names on it since it was their money and their work.
Time for link finding and Remix related fic reading. Those two things should keep me busy all day.
