me.
i'm brooke. a short, fatish, bisexual, feminist, pacifist, very-liberal activist. i have 4 cats. and 2 computers, 2 kayaks, 1 masters degree, multiple backpacks, and way too many books.
i live in the most beautiful eugene, oregon. i'm currently disabled due to treatment resistant severe depression. i've been blogging since election day of 2000.
i'm born and raised in the mountains of southwestern virginia. i could join the daughters of the american revolution, i don't think they'd like me cause i hear they like to throw tea parties instead of rallies and revolutions.

Tuesday, May 27
well, finally something somewhat good happened. opn (oregon public network) finally answered my application about volunteering there. it sounds like i'll be working in their public lab, helping folks out with this and that. there was a bunch of other things to help with, things i wanted to do more, but at this point i'm just desperate to get out of my house for a bit of time a week.
i've got the exact dates of the trip to rhode island. if i go i'll be gone for a long time. i'm not sure i want to be gone for that long. but on the upside its a real family bonding thing which is important. on the uncomfortable side is dealing with my uncle, who i had a blow out with during my time back home after my grandparents died. i've never had a blow out with a family member like that. dad and i even had a blow out about it, but he also saw my view on the situation and actually agreed with me that my uncle was wrong. anyhow, i'm still upset about it because i was essientally blown off because of my life. but on the positive note, my other aunt s and uncle c will be there. i adore s and c. we have similiar views of the world. growing up i always adored my aunt s, a girl couldn't ask for a better aunt.
and finally.. it was chel's birthday the other day.. i forgot! she'll get something in the mail soon. along with the beads i got her in greece. also roni is going through a really sucky time.. she lost someone *really* important to her. go over and send some love.
