wrap it up

Support World AIDS Day
the united nations has declared december 1st world aids day.

so i have one message for you - wrap it up!

last year at this time i was in red deer at the college attending a central alberta aids organisation's talk where i answered a question and got a free pair of socks, it was a good time. anticipation and excitement for south africa and a rather positive moment in the world of my canada world youth experience. that project has taken on a life of its own in my memory. so nice to be independent and free again and yet i learned a lot and met some fabulous people.

now if they would just stop sending me those emails about getting signatures on their petition.

today is also the first day of a new budget month and the first day i get to eat an advent calendar chocolate. exciting developments because now i can get some more groceries (ok, and maybe a new pair of boots) and have a chocolate a day!

Oh lordy you make me laugh! Those damnned petitions, and I sure as heck don't want to work for them.... I remember that day. Now I am curious as to where the socks went that I had won. So many clothes disappeared during those six months, you wouldn't believe it!
