So yesterday was very fun. Took part in the monthly Realigh Critical Mass, it was a good turnout and it went very well. I also took a few hours out to clean the Food Not Bombs kitchen. Swept, washed and dried all the dishes, and mopped it up. Looks alot less nasty. Also organized the food. And the best part is that they don't know who did it, I dunno, I never liked people knowing when I did good things, I hate when people are anything less than totally humble. Stating this in a journal may sound conceited, but you people don't hang out with me do you!?
Anyway spraying tonight, the SG symbol no less. I've been meaning to upload some pix of stickers i put up. Some fucking assholes from the National Alliance put up their racist bullshit stickers, so I found all of them and put up SG in their place. I'd have rather found the NA people and put their skulls in the place, but c'est la vie. One day I will find them, and they will feel pain.

Happy times! I'm not pissed, I'm just usually half angry at the world, even when i'm smiling. You know what I'm talking about. Much love kids, I'm "outie 5000" as the kids say.

lol a food not bombs kitchen. We used to drive from house to house every saturday trying to find a place to prepare the food. I remember a sandwich line..good times nonetheless. Makes me think about the long beach park during early spring.

It's nice to hear about your endeavours with Food Not Bombs. I've been a little jaded with activism through the years because I went to a school where it was fashionable to use $10 words and pretend like you give a fuck, but not to actually lift a finger as to situations around us. Also, unless you were serving the "right cause" (which was in vogue and switched from week to week) you "weren't doing any good." I'm a big fan of centralizing yourself on a few goals instead of spreading yourself too thin by trying to take on everything, as it generally accomplishes more to be issue oriented. Anyway, long rant. Basically, Food Not Bombs is a good thing, and I'm glad to see someone taking an active role.

Also, I'm glad to meet a lad who has both an endearing southern accent and a love of opera. I love love love Madama Butterfly, as it was actually what I went to see on my first date (I was an odd child) so it has a special place in my heart. I'm also really big on all other Puccini (especially Turandot) and pretty much anything Britten composes. How about you?

Anyway, it's lovely to meet a relatively like-minded individual.

(Edited to clarify that I know that Puccini wrote Madama Butterfly. Heh.)
