Fundraiser for the Kidney Recovery Foundation! Looking for volunteers

Calling all great guys in the Detroit/Metro Detroit area!

I've been working with our popcorn queen, Whitney, to help grant write/fundraise for the Arana Kidney Recovery Foundation. I am part of an upcoming fundraising event that will help the cause directly, and they are in need of volunteers.

Event details:

*"Battle of the Cover Bands" charity event

*Each competing band picks a charity to represent.

*Attendees get voting tokens with their tickets; the votes convert directly into cash donations for the bands chosen charity

I'm in a White Stripes cover band (Sapphic Nation Army) and we made it to the semifinals this year. We have picked AKRF as our charity and want to raise as much as possible!

Volunteer info:

*End of October (exact date is TBD because the original venue fell through)

*Will take place in either downtown Detroit or Royal Oak (pending venue)

*Volunteers are needed for taking tickets, helping with equipment changeover between sets, and working the wine/beer bar

If you'd like to learn more, send me a message with your name/email so I can add you to the list. This does not lock you into a commitment - it just means you will get the event details and sign up info once everything has been finalized.

Thanks!

I have a free extra time machine!

Hey now! I was gifted an extra Time Machine and thought it deserved a good home instead of sitting in a drawer with me.

I'm just going to pick a random winner - so to make it fun just comment with the one show you'd go to if you could physically time travel⚡️

I'll give it 24 hours and then run the thread through redditraffle and comment with the winner.

I'll cover shipping if you are in the US!

Edit: After 24 hours - I used reddit raffle and our winner is u/AVL_NC (I will message you!)

It was really fun to go through the list and see everyone's favorite. For fun Im doing a little project to tally the votes for each show and see which got the most mentions. Love to all of you ✌🏻

Signed with a literary agent and cried over my dog's 18th birthday

Being a published author has been a lifelong dream of mine. I have been working on my first novel for the past two years and I officially signed with a literary agent. Probably the proudest I've ever felt.

​

Also my dog turned 18 today! A lot of tears today (happy and sad)

​

Dinner: Truffle fries and a canned margarita

​

Dogs dinner: Biscuit birthday cake
