For your morning dose of travel envy and charitable opportunity...
[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] has posted his photos of the trip to Africa he took with [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]. They include an adorable one of a lemur on Amanda's head. :)
Also, while you're there, support Phil's Movember fundraising by making a donation towards prostate cancer awareness and teh beyondblue campaign, which is aimed at providing assistance to the depressed.
Today's a donation day for me. I've done my United Way contribution and the OPS is currently holding a toy drive for Christmas gifts for underprivileged kids, so I offloaded some bits and pieces I've accumulated via stocking fillers (if anyone has any decent condition, clean, unwrapped toys or games they'd like to contribute, we have boxes in the foyers of our building at Bay and Wellesley). I also have my Remembrance Day poppy for tomorrow.
I have tomorrow off, since I'm a government worker. I was going to do some pre-emptive Christmas shopping, but the pay cheque is a tad stretched already, so I'll settle for a new pair of winter shoes and a haircut. Considering I haven't had my hair trimmed since August, it's sorely needed.
I'm also about to be alone in the office for a bit - B's father passed away evening before last and so people are going to the funeral. I'm not good with the funeral thing, so I offered to stay and man the phones so others could go.
