Well, thanks to Skarpi (you know I love you, dude) we've had far worse in the BS section lately.... so here's the thing:

This Saturday I am running in the Komen 5K Race for the Cure, a Breast Cancer fund- and awareness-raiser.

I am no athlete, but thanks to an amazing woman named Judy Swasey, I became a runner 8 years ago (after many years of smoking, all KINDS of bad living):

If you are at all inclined to support the cause, you can follow the link from the article or go to my fundraising page:

Otherwise, just send good thoughts Saturday morning~ that'll help!

This usually falls at about my birthday every year, and it seems like a great way to celebrate life! If someone is inclined to start a thread, I'd love to hear other ways people mark birthdays.

Thanks, guys.

Dani

For what it's worth, when I buy stamps, I always buy the breast cancer research ones.I don't know if it helps, but it makes me feel good.
Anything that fights the disease that destroys the most beautiful form in all of nature is worth supporting.
