Talent Agent Troubles
My talent agent partner, Shandell Burgess, & I were working on pictures of cats & kittens today. We were in one of the Kitty Kondos when Blackette decided to add her two cents. Shandell snapped these pics while I was hard at work, if you can call it that. I think the hardest thing about …

Put On A Happy Face!
I was working at HSWC this past Saturday when I asked a young girl (maybe age 14) if I could help her. She handed me an adoption application and said her family was there to get Betsy. My precious little Betsy — how I love that little dog! I started talking to the girl and asked …

We’re Not in Kansas Anymore (or How I Learned to Love Fundraising)
Well, yesterday 6/7/11 I became part of the Pit Crew responsible for planning HSWC’s third annual Bowl-A-Thon. Ironic that I’m into the fundraising thing now because that was one of the things I said I didn’t want to do when I filled out my volunteer application that first day. (see Green Means Go). Funny how things …
