Today is the day!
Three months of work culminates in today's anti-war rally. My tasks: meet with the Marshalls at 12 noon, handle media relations at 1:00, when the march starts, head over to Wesley church and set up for the closing program, MC the closing program, help clean up, go home and collapse.
We had a mini blizzard yesterday -- most of the snow stayed south of us. In fact, Keister, near the Iowa border, got 21 inches of snow dumped on her! Here in the Cities, the snowline broke just north of Minneapolis. The northern suburbs got nothing, we got about 4 inches. Not too much to dampen pariticipation today, but enough to coat everything with a beautiful white blanket.
I've been having an intense few days on the internet. I've been following the "where are the women bloggers" (click on Pinko Feminist Hellcat to see more) debates and the "where are the women op-ed writers" debate for three days. Then yesterday I cliked on the link of a women who commented at PFH and discovered Mama's Junkyard and links to African women bloggers.
There is an entire fabulous world out there having nothing to do with our squabbles her in the states. Go. Click. Link. Learn more. All is well.
TIme to cut Ravenhub's hair. For the first time in 20 years of political activity, we are co-MC-ing today's event. I think it will be fun!
