Dig it

So I'm finding myself in love with a variety of things and happenings at the moment, and have this burning desire to share them here.
  • First of all, my favorite magazine in the whole wide world, Bitch, recently came out with its latest issue, and, as usual, I get all riled up when reading it and am currently bursting at the seams with feminist activist glory and love.
  • Second, I've been reading Cunt: A Declaration of Independence, and it is a blessing of a book. As some may know but many may not, CUNT is a glorious word which we as women must reclaim for the glory it once stood for. It was once a term of ultimate respect and honor for priestesses, goddesses and the likes. Chew on that.
  • Third, the Roger Ebert Overlooked Film Festival happening here in Chambana. I've seen Moolade, Sadie Thompson (the 1928 silent version, accompanied by LIVE music this showing!!!), and La Dolce Vida which Dave and I saw tonight as our "date night" event. I'm all hazy-eye and giddy over this chunk of delicious cinema that's currently in my life.
  • Fourth, Dave's step-mom sent him a care package for finals week, which was basically an entire box stuffed with junk food. Glorious salty and sweet and crunchy and gooey yums for me to fill my voids with!

Hi Sarah! I'm so happy you found me! I sent you a message on teh myspace a few weeks ago but I had a feeling you'd never get it. I also sent a postcard for my show to your old address on Huron...I wrote "please forward" but I guess the chances are slim that it'll ever reach you. Well, if you send me your current address I'll send you another one. I'm just finishing up Plan and then I'm moving back to Oak Park until a feasible course of action presents itself. Sooo thrilling.

I hope you are well! My email is mcassidy@marlboro.edu, send me your info and we should get together in August. And talk before then!

You read Bust too, don't you? I love that magazine! I will have to try Bitch as well.
