Hunger Action Month

Sometimes I feel like every month, every week and every day is action day.  I am looking forward to an inaction day, but don’t see any other those on the horizon.

September is Hunger Action Month.  I think if you are hungry you are hungry every month and you are looking for food every month, week and day, not just one month.  At this very writing the Food Bank is holding a 24 hour telethon on their website.  All kind of people are spending the night at the food bank headquarters in Raleigh with bands and food trucks and all kinds of volunteers stopping by.

I am making an appearance on the telethon tomorrow morning about 8:45.  I am going to be interviewed about the Less Dana Campaign so if you want to see me in live streaming Internet just click on this link while you enjoy your morning coffee. Food Bank Telethon

I can’t imagine what the poor Food Bank staff has been through this week with the giant Sort-a-rama on Wednesday and now spending the night running a 24-hour telethon.

I am not an all nighter kind of person, never have been.  In college I had friends who would stay up all night writing those last minute papers they had known were due for three weeks.  Waiting until the last minute makes me too nervous and I just don’t like the pressure of leaving things to the deadline.

Except today, I left by blog to the last minute as well as the laundry I need washed so I can pack for my quick overnight trip to Washington DC tomorrow when I am finished up with the telethon.   So I apology for the non-blog blog today, which is really more of an ad for the telethon  — I just had way too much action today which left little time for reflection.
