Balance?

Work time is fucking awesome! We've been told since we got here that eventually we would be given time to take care of work. That time is now and it is great. I don't have a committee appointment until next week because for the last week i was working on the Research Committee, which means that i don't have much to do right this moment. In thirteen minutes from now i'm going out to spend the evening registering voters. I need to get my numbers up so i'm trying to get excited about it.

I was feeling very frustrated about things the last few days, but i'm feeling much better today. We had a interesting discussion about balance today and i think that helped some. 

After we get done tonight, i am going to Eugene to the Oregon Country Fair (Alex calls it "advanced research in the sociology of white people." it's got a ring to it.) to register voters tomorrow. I'm going down with Drew tonight to meet some of his friends and party before we have to work. This fair is supposed to be an interesting hippie fest that is ripe for voter registration so i'm excited to get there.

Next point, Blue Oregon (a blog about progressive politics in Oregon) posted an article about the Bus Project today so you should all go read it. Here is a picture of me (a couple more are in the Blue Oregon article).
