Missed the Peace Rally
Today I goofed and I've never been more mad at myself... I accidentally confused Saturday with Sunday, in that I thought tomorrow was the International Day of Action against the war... I had been looking forward to this day for quite some time, as I feel that it is necessary for civilian everybodies to support those activists and otherones that are putting their "decencies" on the line by committing to actively (and thus activistly) seeking out progress (in the human sense, not the economic one)... the reason for the mixup was because I was getting emails about the SF protest (which is actually on Sunday because of Saturday's Chinese New Year parade) and the SD protest (actually was today, Saturday)...serves me right for not being organized. but the real lesson from the story is that I need to move up to SF even moreso because I have not had any friends down here to go to events with... I have not been able to get excited about things with anyone, I've had to keep it all to myself, like a foreigner afraid to open up to natives. I am putting a stop to this, and because I am quite the conversationalist, I seek to say everything... I think I once said in my journal "I live by entropy.... see everything!"
