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.

Sunday, May 25
well shit. my mind totally forgot about the starhawk event today. dammit. oh well.
it looks like i might very well head to portsmouth with my dad to intern my grandparents ashes. he's going to get back to me on the exact date and then i've got to work with the frequent flyer people about changing the date of my heading back east, and then i've got to figure out how to get from rhode island back to home cause dad is heading to new jersey from there. if all this works out i'll have a week to do as i please, which probably means heading to south carolina to see 2 dear friends of mine and then to north carolina to see my brother and his new house.
and finally.. being the middle class princess that i am, my mother has promised me a trip to europe if i get in shape and loose the weight i put on 3.5 years ago due to a drug. luckily my doc used to run a weight loss program and my therapist is dealing with weight loss issues of her own so both my professionals will be of good help. i'm a member of the y, i used to be an athlete.. i've been told its easier to get back into shape when you were in shape at one point than if you've never been there. so, i'm gonna have one last blow out.... i bought ice cream at the store. i see my doc on wednesday, tommorrow i'll head to the y and make an appointment with a trainer.. i'll get my kitchen clean so that i can use it and eat lots of tofu and veggies and all that good stuff.. i'll get popscicle thingys so that i can make my own juice popscicles cause sugar is my drug of choice.. and finally i'll put signs all around that say 'europe'.. the trip will be one that i'll go with my mom and my stepfather.. i said to her "great, lets go to greece!" cause i really want to show her greece. at least athens and lesvos. she mentioned scotland and england (we've got family friends in england).. anyhow, just one step at a time. first i start loosing weight. i really am a middle class princess.
