Hello, blogger. It's been a while. I found in a link sent by a friend, who participated in the March for Life recently, and thought I'd post it:

I had the privilege of hearing Senator Brownback speak at the Bloggers for Life Conference I attended before the march. He touched on almost every aspect of the Pro-Life debate, including prenatal screening tests, stem cell research, euthanasia. As he said, the abortion debate boils down to this: Is the youngest of humans a person or property? Under our system of government, everything is one or the other. "Throughout the history of mankind, when we have one class of people as less than another, we have regretted it." Referring to the shameful days when African Americans were counted as 3/5 a person.

I thought that would be a good slogan. "Are infants people or property?"

Anyway, life is going well. I've been working a lot, but I just put in my two-weeks notice for my evening job. I need to dance more, so that I can actually make a career out of it. Next, I need to find a job during the day monday through friday that will pay me enough to keep my life going upward. And I'm writing a lot, despite work. I've been working on a short story during free times at work, and I'm still working on my book, and I just finished a poem for Lara, and I'm reading several things, including the essays at the beginning of an antique rhyming dictionary (yum!)

I leave for Colorado in a week and a half, and I can't wait! One day of skiing and a bunch of days of visiting Lara's friends and hitting up her favorite dance venues. Yay!

Also, I made a new friend. Megan, who works at Two Senoritas, is a photographer, model, and fashion designer with bartending experience from NYC, and the strangest sense of fun I've met in a long time. For example: there are trees near her house with vines, and she was swinging from the vines and bruised herself up hitting trees. And she went to the beach in a bikini and gorilla mask, just for kicks. And when asked out by one of my sketchy coworkers, she totally rejected him because he's "old and boring". After a meeting at work yesterday, Lara, Chris, Megan and I went out for food, and they totally all got along. So yay for new friends!

I can't wait to go dancing, in about an hour and a half. I need to get other stuff done, so I'll talk to you laters, blogger. Au revoir, until again.
