The DC protest has left us exhausted...5.5 hour drive, now back in N.C.
Edited on Sun Sep-25-05 09:59 PM by JanMichael
All that walking, talking, drinking and thinking, can really put a hurt on you!

Anyway will post much more tomorrow about the experiance with 200+ thousand screaming Liberals, Progressives, some moderates I suppose, Leftists, Socialists, Labor types, Housing advocates, Religious folks, young people, old (LOTS OF OLDER PROTESTORS!) people, Lesbians, Moms, Veterans, Grannies, Communists, Democrats (Rank and file but not leadership...), Greens, children, people with signs, people without signs, people that are simply signs in and of themselves, etcetera.

I even got an honorary toaster along with Stephanie who got a toaster oven.

Met many cool DU'ers and some serious ones too. Friday at the Hawk and Dove was absolutely FABULOUS!

Good NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: I think we may have some decent photos too but we have to get them developed tomorrow...

2. It was amazing!
I don't know about you but my head was a little thick this morning...

Anyway it was a blast. BTW you can be hilarious as were the others who are probably still in DC and away from the internets.
