Kat, was that ever really in question?

Yeah, don't watch the song. But definitely check out he movie sometime.

Man, I still love Eric Idle's schtick.

M, not really. But girl scouts? That's a beyond in some ways.

This should be a Good Things Tumblr: [link] I love this girl. Kids rock.

I don't have a blog, but I try to clean up my polish slop over before I post a pic of my manicure to facebook. The skin on the hands makes me think the blogger is elderly. It has that paper quality that older skin gets.

Looks less like age skin, more like overswatched skin. I think she does a lot of swatches w/o cleanup, and the acetone will make your skin look like that.

MFNlaw, definitely. And I might be needing a floor to crash on and/or a lift from the airport. I might not, because the hotel for the event is super close to the area they've got permitted for the protest, and that might just be the easiest thing logistically, but of course, if I'm having to fund it personally, cost might be a factor as to whether or not I can do it.

And Kat, yeah. I think it's going to be extremely impactful, and I want to do it, and I want to be able to say afterwards that I was there. I'm a friend of a friend of the organizer, so I really am kinda hoping to be able to be one of the apologizers.

We've actually apologized before, in person, to our closest Navajo friends, on behalf of Anglos and on behalf of the church, for what they went through. They've never talked about it afterward, but based on their response at the time, I think it was really important that we did that.

And I would have liked our nation to do that too. And they kind of did, but the way they buried it in an unrelated bill, and never did press or anything about it, was disrespectful. So this event will hopefully both draw attention to the shameful way it was done, but also actually be a publicly spoken apology.

Liese, echoing Kat, that does sound like an amazing thing, and I can see why you'd want to do it.

Typing on phone hard.

'Suela,

was it you who mentioned Movember? Apparently some women are interested in not shaving for November. Men are displeased.

Liese, my email is in my profile; please include me on any info if you don't want to post it here. I can't guarantee this early but I'm tentatively planning to be off work then, and I'd like to support that.

(I probably can't offer a bed, but I may be able to provide taxi service or something else that could help with the dollars of it all. I feel like you should be there and I would like to help with that, basically.)

Whee, I'm awake. To jazz, which doesn't amuse me., but those are the options at 5 am on a saturday.
