Happy Banned Book Week!

I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Banned Book Week!!! I think we should start a movement. Everyone go out this afternoon to your nearest bookstore and buy one of the 100 most challenged books in the 1990's. Be a rebel - educate yourself or someone you love. For more information on Banned Books Week - you can go to Amnesty International, the ACLU, or the American Library Association webpages. I've decided that this is one area of my life where I am entirely committed be being totally subversive.

In other news, last night I had 5 girls over to my place and we had a blast! Viola helped me make baked pasta and brownies, then we all sat around and drank 4 bottles of wine and just had a good time. It was a lot of fun. We've planned the Rebecca White wine party 2007. Next week we're going to get all dolled up and have wine and munchies at my place, then go out on the town. How fun will that be? I think that me getting settled in here has pivoted on getting to know people here and developing a strong social network. I consider myself really fortunate to have met a great group of people. It's making my stay here even more enjoyable. As Leah and I were discussing last night - I'm going to be talking about this year for years to come...I need to have something to talk about.

Now...get out there and buy your favorite banned book!!!
