I forgot to take the “donate” button down last night. It’s gone now and I hope I can keep my pledge to you that this will be truly The Last Fundraiser. It should be, barring disasters. <\/p>\n

Had to laugh, though. Yesterday morning, the total stood at an already-amazing $7,275. Three kind people decided they’d round that off to $7,300. Yes, each one specifically said their donation was for rounding purposes, and each counteracted the others’ attempts. Well, $7,350 may not be “round,” but it’s still a nicely balanced number. One generous soul was making her fifth<\/em> contribution, just to keep numbers tidy. <\/p>\n

Then the very last donation came in for $7.42, deliberately given to end us on an un-round note. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
