I need money!

If you have spoken to me, you know this. This is not new news. In fact, by now, I am not even sure it qualifies as "news". This is information that would in ordinary circumstances, be degraded from memory and thus inaccessible. Luckily for the universe, I have this general tendency to be...as some may say, obnoxious (I prefer the word spirited), and consequently, I tend to repeatedly announce my lack of funds to the universe:

I need money, yes I do,
I need money, yes, it's true!

Yes, I use a lot of "I"s. Call it younger-sibling egocentrism or whatever you want. Point is, my energy is in-your-face infectious (or in-your-ear annoyance). I am also very competitive. I (yes, me, me, me) am also hoping that these qualities will be just the thing to help my team and I to raise the $7,500 that we have set out to accomplish.

So please, show your support in any way you can. After all, this money is not going to me, it is going to WE. We can make a difference.

And so can I.
