MARCH ON!

so, i was active this weekend. seriously active. i mean if you call a long road trip and a slow moving march active.
but it was, i assure you, the most ACTIVE thing i have ever done, and it was NICE.

anyway, my head spins when trying to really convey what it was to be a part of something like that, but i went with two other gal pals and we just drove up ourselves, without any group association. so it was kind of cool in a way because we really had no idea the scope of the event and then there we were, part of a group of over a million people strong.

lots of speakers, and musicians (most barely tolerable) but it was seeing such the varied group of people that makes you really think about what you are there representing. the media liked to coin it as simply a "pro-choice" rally. but it really was about WAY more than that. and for me to go into it would take pages and pages and hours and hours. i guess it boils down to the basic value of one's life. and in this case the value of a woman's life. and apparently that isn't something that the politicians should take lightly.

will again, make an empty vow to blog more often. but at least this time when i don't follow through, one can assume it because i have now been spurred on to do SOMETHING a bit more than sitting at home waiting to be able to crawl into bed again.

peace out...
