why I like volunteering enough to actually post something (even though it doesn't count toward my nanowrimo count)
I've been volunteering at Reading For the Blind & Dyslexic (RFB&D) for a few months now, and I love it. I felt crummy last Monday, so I didn't go and I went this past Saturday, and then again tonight. Even with everything else going on, I love my time there. I get to read interesting things - Saturday it was an anthology of modern African literature, and then tonight it was a book about skepticism and Christianity. And I love the singularity of purpose that it entails. I love going into that little booth, cellphone on silent, with one thing to do. No emails popping up, no boss on the phone, just one thing. Short but sweet, and there it is. Back to NaNoWriMo.
