I'm telling all the people who where going to vote for me on Monday to vote for one my opponents. Why? Because my other opponent is a dangerous man. All he wants to is develop, develop, develop this town. He doesn't want to spend money on schools or affordable housing. He says he's in favor of... Sign in to see full entry.

You Want to Call Who?
Today I was threatened with (not by) the department of Homeland Security. The shipping company wants to call Homeland Security about the stuff I sent to Uganda because Umass never paid for it. I thought if that happened you called a bill collector, not Homeland Security! They say if I don't pay by... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday I flew; Today I Fumed!
Well, I didn't really fly; I dangled from a climbing rope at Hampshire College as part of the annual Lemelson Assistive Technology Development Center conference. But I was about six feet off the ground! I've never been that far off the ground except in an airplane. I even pulled myself a little... Sign in to see full entry.

On the Campaign Trail...
Busy day... I went to first debate at the Belchertown Senior Center, wearing my green dress with pink flowers (the fanciest dress I own; it's very grown up). Discovered, to my horror, that one of people running for Board of Health is nuts! He held up one of those terrorist body bag things (which I... Sign in to see full entry.

Homophobia... internalized!
I can't believed I almost didn't go to Pride yesterday because I was afraid voters would figure out I'm queer! I haven'tt had a moment like that in three years! But it was totally fun and I'm glad I went. I ran into old friends and even some voters. Still I'm a little annoyed at myself... Today was... Sign in to see full entry.

Rain, Rain, Go Away!
Actually, today was a pretty good over all, despite the rain- which was pretty constant. Got up around 7AM to go to handyman's tag sale in Florence (which is this cute little town outside of Northampton).where I picked up some cheap plastic coated wire and pipes for a dance I want to make. Then I... Sign in to see full entry.

$$$ Departing
Spent about $65 treating Jessica to dinner and a Margaret Cho (famous, radical comedienne- not to mention my personal favorite) show; figured she could use a little humor after all the stress of the FBI thing (which still isn't over). Now, apparently the creepy dude is claiming Jessica and Kierstal... Sign in to see full entry.

Belchertown Gives Bad Man the Boot!
Gone all day today at 2 meetings. One was about access at Valley Free Radio with this cool dude named Eric, but the hunt for the bathroom and a van service timing mistake made me late for the second one, which was a meeting about tourism in Belchertown. The developer wanted to build a huge hotel and... Sign in to see full entry.

Cheesy Goodness!
I have completely completed and clean laundry for the first time in a month! I think it took four loads, at least. My hamper was full, plus an extra pile beside it nearly as tall. It's rediculous how happy this makes me. Then I had a long nap. My new PCA Patience is coming along nicely; her first... Sign in to see full entry.

Good and Bad
Spent over 6 hours in the manual chair, which started falling part. Pushed myself a bit; even got my own ice cream from DQ (chocolate dipped chocolate soft serve). Opened a lot of campaign mail after a nap when I got home, as well as receiving my Hampshire check (finally signed up for a loan finding... Sign in to see full entry.
