Everything but the...

Besides being one of my favorite flavors of Ben & Jerry's, it seems like the only way to sum up what has been going on other than the big and the obvious.

(some of the marchers)

Tuesday, as I walked back from the car rental place, I accidentally hooked into an anti-war march with CodePink. They decked me out in a bright pink feather boa, handed me a sign, and we started chanting as we joining the rest of the marchers down Michigan Ave. Very cool. I love marching, because it feels like I am doing something (if only adding to the numbers and noise), but also the very cool group energy, and the reactions of everyone around. There were alot of people on the street cheering, taxis honking their support. And the gold mine was the buses. To either get commuters or the driver to acknowledge was awesome.

Saw Colour Me Kubrick last night, which is one of the most fun movies I have seen in a while. Not so much on the plot, but John Malkovitch is brilliant. I heart the Landmark!

Reading One Hundred Years of Solitude, which has been on my list for a while (and not because Oprah told me to). I tried reading a few years back, but this time it is really working for me. I have also become a sudoku fiend at work.

Chicago has finally broken out of the freeze. Unfortunately, it can either be warm and rainy or cold and sunny. I'm just happy I'm not wearing umpteen layers anymore. But contrary to roommate belief, it is NOT air conditioning weather. But it does make want to go shopping for cute clothes.
