Service is the rent we pay to be living. It is the very purpose of life and not something you do in your spare time. -- Marian Wright Edelman, Founder & President, Children’s Defense Fund

Nine years ago, I went to a ratchet, all-night pajama party in a warehouse (For the record, I had a damn good time).
