I set up a easter egg hunt for my wife today! This anonymous kindness attack was pretty specific to one person but she deserved it. In the eggs I hid candy and random housework chores that needed to be done and promised to do them in the next week and half. I told her to hold me accountable and I know she will.

Anonymous Kindness Attacks
One man's quest to not be a total dick...

03/30/13 - Day 95 - Ani-mall Pet Expo (free)
Today the Animal Protective League put on a big pet owners convention at the local fairgrounds. It was a resounding success. I didn't get to participate in in exclusively but I did enable some of my coworkers to volunteer which I felt was it's own act of kindness. Many animals got adopted. I was able to get over there during my lunch break and snap this picture of an alpaca!
03/29/13 - Day 94 - Good Friday Music (free)
Today I contributed in a small way to a Good Friday church service. I have been able to sing with a small chamber choral ensemble that meets in a nearby town and this Good Friday service was special because we had a guest director. He is the director of choral music at the college I attended and was my choir director back when I went to school. Not only did I get to help people commorate Good Friday but I got to reunite with one of my old instructors.

03/28/13 - Day 93 - Childhungerendshere.com (free)
Today I asked a coworker for a tab that I saw on a peanut butter jar that she had brought in for her lunch. It has a code on it that when submitted to this website: childhungerendshere.com would donate one free meal to starving children. Done!

03/27/13 - Day 92 - Contribution to counseling
A good friend of mine works with young women and single mothers in South Korea. One of her friends was a victim of sexual assault but couldn't afford to get counseling for herself. My friend sent out a plea for people to contribute to get this young woman some counseling.
My contribution was small but hopefully it helped.

03/26/13 - Day 91 - Let people cut in line (free)
Generally I am in a hurry. I try to slow down but it never works. It seems like everyone else pretty much keeps the same pace. I never know why I'm in a hurry to get places. I just want to make sure I have enough time to not be late to where I'm going. I used to (and still sort of) have a problem with tardiness.
But today I was at the gas station and I just let a couple people go in front of me. Not in an annoying overly nice way. I just wanted to let them go ahead because I could tell they were tired of waiting. It was a busy day at that particular gas station and I wasn't in a rush.

03/25/13 - Day 90 - Working for three (free)
Today my kindness attack was a little weird and on accident. I basically had to work in my section for three people. It was rough and I had a lot of help but still I had to cover my shift and the shift of two other people that weren't able to make it work because of family stuff.
I had to slap a dog pretty hard in the face today also. It was the only way to get him to drop the dog he had in his mouth. He's a coonhound and doesn't understand that little dogs aren't prey. I felt bad and he's okay as is the little dog he was trying to hunt down.
