happy international women’s day…

here’s what i did:
Staging at 11:45 AM at Student Services Bldg.; parade at noon. Wear white in honor of the suffragists — or international attire. Join walkers, musicians, equestrians, veterans’ groups, students and more. Carry banners, flags, balloons, or signs. Start at Student Services Bldg, end up on the lawn behind the Student Union. Hear International Women’s Day proclamations, President Glick and special Women’s Day speakers; free lunch to follow….

we then went to the "food, not bombs" booth and got some lovely vegan (i am not vegan, btw, so totally NOT holier than thou….or anyone) salad and veggie soup, ate some popcorn, said hi to all my friends from the women’s studies program, saw the HAWT professor i have a little crush on (rawr…hehehe), enjoyed the sunshine, thanked the goddess for this day, this opportunity, and for making me a woman.

oppressed or not, i would never want to be a man.

life is good, today.

i hope you did something today….to celebrate yourself, to celebrate womankind, to celebrate life.

word.

there were many people today who had hillary clinton signs.

they were chanting revoluntionary slogans.

i thanked female veterans for serving our country.

today i am happy.

peace.
