I think there's a lot on my mind.

I really love the lyrics of that song, thenewgreen, check it out. nowaypablo, you too, if you're still around. Saw him live the other night, it was a tremendous show, the bands musicianship live really impressed me and they were able to get LOUD in a way I wasn't expecting.

    One, two, three

    I count black sheep on my way to sleep

    I can’t pick and choose these devils in my

    Patterned dreams

    When I wake up I am smiling

    Now I will not change my mind

    I will remember the trouble in my

    Brother’s eye

    It’s okay we don’t cry, we love the southern sky

    It’s okay we don’t cry, we love the southern sky

    It’s okay we don’t cry, we love the southern sky

    It’s okay we don’t cry, we love the southern sky

    You and me

    These are titles I can hardly speak

    Are we bound here to an echo tinted

    Blue and green?

    Let my memory run backwards

    So together we may lie

    I will remember the fire

    In the southern sky

Voter turnout for the general election was just shy of 23%. I'd love to see a demographic breakdown of that. Incredibly disappointed in the voters of this state shooting themselves in the foot so that their vehicle tabs are cheaper, this is only going to serve to make our roads worse. I'll have some schadenfreude when these same people are complaining about potholes not being filled two years from now. Meanwhile, affirmative action was voted down which is an interesting choice.

Trying to find more volunteer opportunities to partake in, and trying to find time for it all. Eventually I'm going to blow up or find a limit but I think that having spent time where people living out of tin-roofed shantys were more than happy to be hospitable to me has really turned my mind inside-out in a some ways. Sitting here posting on Hubski from my work office (I have an office now.) is a more privileged existence than most.
