Holy snot! Some kind person re-upped my star?!? |

Wow.
Honestly, that's a great surprise after a not-so-great day.
For those who don't know, I'm currently doing a year of national service with AmeriCorps --yes, incredibly rewarding on an emotional and social-justice kind of level, but really very difficult financially. My stipend for my 50-hour weeks is well below poverty levels.
To the person who donated in my name: thank you. Honestly, a donation to DU is not a possibility for me right now. (Hell, my phone is shut off and I just got my internet back yesterday.) Whether your donation meant a lot to you, it means a whole lot me. A WHOLE lot.
Thanks again. I'll be hoping that your kindness returns to you threefold.

My euphemisms are extensive. "Holy snot" is about as risque as I get!

Hi tofunut. I just realized recently that I shouldn't be able to post in the groups anymore. Yet I still can. Yay! I think there's some extra-special veggie out there. Or is that redundant? ;)
I want to thank them too. I was going to let my donation lapse. Feel bad about it, but lapse. I would have had to mail one in because I don't have a credit card, and is there ever any extra cash?

But I think things are starting to look up. :hi:
Hey, I learned on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire that Bill Clinton created AmeriCorp! Which makes me a lazy tv watcher while you're out doing great things. ;)
