(no subject)
A couple of days ago I realized I've never yet met a Libertarian who has spent any amount of time working amongst an urban poor population. I wonder if I ever will. A lot has to change in the world before any sort of inner city charter school is going to work. It only took a year of working at an after school program in Seattle's CD to figure that out, or rather, the first month.
What any of this has to do with Easter, I don't know. I think of Easter, and I think of the place in "American Gods" where Shadow meets her in the Golden Gate Park panhandle. I also am constantly struck by the fact that Christian holidays are all perverted Pagan holidays. Couldn't you keep track of your dates more exactly, people? I guess back then, it only mattered to blend in, but now it seems like they could do some corrections for the sake of historical accuracy. No one wants Christmas to be in any month other than December, though, otherwise winter would be even more bleak.
Today I feel contrary. I don't want to take a day off from the gym, but I know I'd probably do better tomorrow if I took a rest day. Time to open this excellent bottle of wine instead and have a glass.
