Hi Trish.
I just up and asked... it was the lady who had come to drive me to the first meeting when I called. After I'd known her for a day... I was drunk when I met her, and the second time she came to get me, I was somewhat more sober, and I knew it was now or never, I'd never get the nerve or find the right one if I sat and thought it through. So...
Now that I've been talking to her and others about it, it turns out to be as good a way to get a sponsor as any other... they know you're new, they know you don't have all the answers...
Take care,
TB
