Free Rice

I just found this website after listening to NPR this morning . It's a word game - the better you are the more you can donate to the WFP. Check it out and help feed the hungry!

Getting All Set

Got my staging kit yesterday! So, turns out I'm leaving two days earlier than I thought - January 6th instead of January 8th. Staging got moved up a day and then it turns out that you can't get a flight from Abq to Philadelphia that gets you there before 1:30. So, I'm leaving Abq at 10:20 am on Sunday, January 6th, flying first to Denver then to Philadelphia, where I get an extra night in a hotel. Unfortunately I arrive too late to really see the sights, but I don't have to check in until 1:30 the next day, so maybe I'll be able to slog around a bit in the morning.

If anyone else is headed that way, I'm flying United - give me a holler and maybe we can sit together :)

Into the Great Beyond

So, I'm wondering, am I the only one interested in meeting the other volunteers for my stage ahead of time? Only one other person has found me **waves to Allie** and I'm trying to figure out why... **sniffs** If anyone else is headed to Niger in January of '08, please, give a holler!
