Have work to do, so of course I'm on here. So college Halloween is just kind of about dressing up like a slut and calling it a costume (no offense to anyone, I was a slutty nun last year), so I decided to go in the total opposite direction and be the least sexy thing ever: George Washington. ha ha Halloween weekend was not too exciting, but fun ( Read more... )

thanks for all your advice, rach. we're actually not going through with the civ. disobed. act for next weekend, because our lawyer bailed on us and it's kind of important to have legal representation in this situation. but we may plan it for another time. so i got off the hook this time, but i'm going to have to make a decision about it soon. your ideas are good...we actually have tried to meet with her (twice!), have protested (legally) in front of her office once to show her we wanted her to talk with us, and faxed her hundreds of petitions signed by students about signing this bill as part of a letter-writing campaign. she's neglected to respons to any of this, so the civ. disobed act in her office would kind of be a last resort, the consummation of all our work and her ignoring us. but i do see your point about getting involved in other causes (i actually may be going to a lobbying session/protest in DC about the current genocide in Darfur) but also feel that we can't ignore the fact that people are still dying, that we are still waging war overseas, many Americans seem to kind have forgotten/lost concern about the war, and therefore, it is allowed to continue to go on and grow and who knows how it will effect us if there are no checks on its expansion? anyways, i really do appreciate your advice, and seriously considered everything you said....i think when the opportunity comes again, i actually may not go through with the civ. disobed...there's a lot of other ways to help without getting arrested, as you said.
