Summer Santa

I know it's been a long time since I've written, and there's really no good excuse. Sure, I've been busy, but I once read a book about writing that said that you have to treat your writing as your lover; you need to sneak time in and make it so passionate and all-consuming that you let other things slide. Well, I suppose this means I'd suck at having an affair.

Anyhow, that was so totally the opposite of the topic of today's blogpost. I'm here for a shameless plug. I wanted to spread the word about a city-wide (Cleveland) toy drive that's going to go on from June 27 through July 15. We're hoping to collect lots and lots and lots of toys to send to the children devastated by the floods in Iowa. Quite a few organizations have come on board for this cause, agreeing to be drop-off locations, and we'll be on the local Channel 3 news today. Today will be busy; we have to distribute the drop-boxes throughout town. But oh, how exciting!!!

If you want to get involved, and don't live in Cleveland, you can visit the website and donate money. We've got links to Mercy Hospital and the American Red Cross. If you're in Cleveland and want to help, please contact me!!!
