Made The Call

I finally called the Children's museum (well, the assistant manager). She was really nice about all of it. I feel like I may have seemed impolite though, I sort of rushed through what I had written down to say (and I actually didn't get to the other questions I was going to get to)

Anyways, she's going to e-mail me sometime next week after she gets in touch with the people that do the program to see if they would be ok with it.
