today there was a home football game. about eight white dudes in a monster truck parked in front of our house. they spit chewing tobacco all over the street and urinated in the grove of trees between our house and the neighbor's.
i did not go to the demonstration in dc today, but i did go to the vegetarian festival in charlottesville. instead of telling bush how i really feel, i sampled wheat gluton meatballs and talked to alternative health practicioners. i learned that there is a vegan bed & breakfast in the blue ridge mountains called the white pig and a vegetarian tibetan buddhist sangha called semchen. alas, i am still not a vegetarian and bush is still president.
i also went to the farmer's market this morning where i purchased a lavender plant and an abundance of organic veggies. i brought cinnamon rolls home to dan and tashi and then we went to the salvation army store in search of a desk for dan. we had no luck. afterwards we took all our flattened boxes and bags of packing paper to the recycle center where tashi had a blast pouring things into big dumpsters.
i was pretty thrilled to find that, while channel surfing late last night, viggo mortensen was on both david letterman and charlie rose. viggo is not just an actor. he is an outspoken leftist, a painter, musician, poet and publisher. check out his thoughtful press, perceval.
