go here to donate to a variety of charities [including the humane society, who are working hard to rescue abandoned and injured pets.] i donated one day's worth of pay--what i would make if i worked on labor day, for example--to the humane society, after seeing countless pictures of abandoned pets, stranded on the rooftops of flooded houses. i almost had to leave work in tears.

please please please donate, if you can. the minimum donation amount is $10: if everyone on my friends list donated just ten bucks, that'd be $1200+. imagine if all of your friends' friends did so. please spread this around.
