Finally getting back on track... ... with sleep. Yesterday, I was on the go all day long. I stopped by the Democratic headquarters to say hi/bye to folks. It was sort of sad to see them carrying stuff out of the office, preparing Barbara for Albany. And then at some point during the day, I had confirmed with Lori that we'd go see Winona LaDuke speak at Ithaca College. For those of you that don't know... Winona LaDuke is an environmental activist and was the Green Party Vice Presidential candidate in '96 and 2000, running with Ralph Nader. She was a great speaker... amazingly witty. When she said one of her biggest pet peeves the last few months was reading about 'Regis and Kelly all over the place,' I about died. She has a very common sense approach to activism and her views are mostly based on native teachings and the rules we teach our children, such as 'don't be greedy' or 'don't steal' which are not reinforced in our society at large. I'm really looking forward to reading more of Winona LaDuke's writings... whenever Lori finishes with the book. hehe So I got home all excited about seeing the last bit of 'Amazing Race'... but the Country Music Awards were on instead. I watched those for a while. No sighting of Reba anywhere. And I think I even missed who got Entertainer of the Year cause I was washing dishes. *shrug* But I *did* get to sleep at a decent hour... so I'm feeling better today. And that's a good thing cause it looks like I have a lot of phone calls and emails to return... so I'd better get started.  | private feedback | |
Hey! I'm Shane... a proud gay progressive Democrat who has recently relocated to New York City from Ithaca, NY. As I am no longer in Ithaca, I haven't quite decided the fate of this blog. Drop me a line!
