Name Change

No, I'm not changing my name, nor the name of this blog. 

Sorry it's been so long since I've written.  Last week was crazy! The NGO I "work" for (and by work I mean that I do work for them without pay) :) just changed its name, brand, identity, everything, to become PL4Y International! (yes, that is a "4" in place of an "A") I won't go into too many details...suffice it to say that I got to participate in the launch party at the Shangri-La Paris ... see here

Sorry for the poor photo quality...lighting plus an iphone makes for less-than picturesque shots.

Fancy finger-food

Yep

Sebastien Chabal, probably one of the most famous French rugby players. His beard is epic.

Some of our athlete-ambassadors with the President of the NGO

Such good desserts...Laura Larsen, I still like your macarons better.

So, ya.  That was the lead-up to my weekend.  I get to go back to the Shangri-La for a gala and auction that we will be holding in November.  I'm pretty stoked.  Other than all that excitement, I'm just plugging along translating the new website into English...the whole thing.  It's crazy how translation makes you realize how little you know your own language.  So many things in French just make sense to me without knowing how I would say it in English.  And, I have to make everything British English...which is a treat.
