So is anyone going to the DC march?
I am considering doing so but haven't made up my mind yet. I have never been to a national march so it is tempting.

We had reservations on an apartment and plane tickets but we just found out our dog is very ill. We are on our way to Purdue on Wednesday to see if she can be operated on. After over $1000 in vet bills so far and the potential of another $2000+ for an operation, we had to cancel. At least we can us our deposit for 6 more months if we decide to go to D.C. in the near furure but we really wanted to be there.
We still intend to organize in our district.
Ah, the old "dog is sick" excuse.

And I love protests.
And then by extension, one assumes the vanquished primitive loves tea parties.

12. Yes. It will be the first grassroots march not funded by corporate interests since 1993.
Fighting for ALL our issues, a central point for unity for LGBT people. I'm going and doing fundraisers so that other locals can go.

15. Well, maybe.
It was absolute until I found out my first rehearsal of the season is that Sunday. I signed my contract so....
I still hope to convince my conductor but it is my job. Damn, I was really totally looking forward to this. Even my husband was going to come with me this time.
Hmmm. The old "I have to work" excuse.
