Events Last Week

So last week I had a couple of events that I forgot to blog about... sorry just kinda busy with work and then getting ready to go to Vegas.

My wife is a teacher. At the school she teaches, they hold a male pageant. Talent, evening wear, casual wear and the usual questioning and answering stuff. The proceeds this year went to a student that had a heart transplant last year and also to help me with some of the medical expenses. Students gave us a standing ovation. Real nice event.

The other event of the week was a black tie event for the National Kidney Foundation. We sat at Coke's table (the biggest sponsor of the event) since they had some extra seats. Great food. Good band. The event honoroed Griffin Bell, former US Attorney General, who had a kidney transplant a few years ago. The wife looked simply ravishing.... Met some really nice people at our table. Told them about my need for a kidney (thus the reason we were at the event) and one guy wanted to buy us tickets for Celine Deon in Vegas.... Was trying to say no gracefully (I mean maybe it would have been different if he had offered Elton John.... hahaha) when his girlfriend saw how uncomfortable it was making us and she talked him out of it.Everybody at the table filled out organ donor cards.
