What are we talking about today?

I'll get back to theme days once I find a groove of posting regularly. In the meantime, most of my posts are about some variation of books, bikes, buses, or Broadway. Plus bits about writing, nonprofits, and grief from time to time.

This blog is mostly lighthearted and pretty silly. It's not about the terrible things happening in the world, but please know that I'm not ignoring those things. I just generally don't write about them here.

Breaking News for Bicycles

Ladies and gents, I'm interrupting your regularly scheduled A-Z-ing for a special report!

That was fun to type. :) So, BikeTexas, the non-profit advocacy group where I currently intern, has a special promotion going on Groupon. Every $10 donation through Groupon equals a set of lights that BikeTexas can give to someone who needs them. (Seriously, bike lights are kind of expensive if you're on a tight budget. Plenty of low-income people don't bother with them, which is dangerous.) So if you're looking for a fun place to spend a charitable donation, this may be the one.

Even better? Groupon doesn't take their usual cut on these deals (called Groupon Grassroots), so every ha'penny of your $10 donation goes to BikeTexas. Yipee! (If you choose not to pay in ha'pennies, your donation will still go 100% to BikeTexas.)

Skip on over to Groupon now! And be sure to drop back by Cheekyness tomorrow to find out what happens with the letter 'R'.
