It raises quite a bit of money and the proceeds benefit children's' charities.
At noon had Communion, then six of us went to lunch at the Bricktown Brewery where I had a drunken onion burger, because it sounded so intriguing.
What I was supposed to have done was wrap my fingers around it, dunk it in the onion soup (which is out of the picture, behind it) then chomp down on it. That's what I was told to do, but as you'd imagine that wasn't what happened. I'm too English and refined; I put aside the top part of the bun, picked up a knife and fork and proceeded as daintily as I could manage to carve it up, like I was eating Sunday lunch. I don't know why I thought I needed the side dish of potato salad, or maybe they brought it anyway.
In the evening at the hospital there was a seminar on Suicide Awareness and Prevention, but I didn't learn anything I didn't already know. It was held in the cafeteria and there was a very big turn out, Bill said over 70 people had responded to the invitation.
I got there in time to visit my friend Donna, who was just about ready to leave. A mutual friend was coming to pick her up, so I helped her down to the lobby and was glad I'd got to see her before she left.
So that has been my rather - for me - eventful day.
