I made it through the last day of this week fairly unscathed. We had the International Clubhouse faculty here all week to assess whether we are worthy of continuing our membership. This visit turned out to be extremely positive. I had several conversations with the certifiers, members and staff about the positive experience had by all, which was ( Read more... )

I'm making my plans to pack up the Micro-bus and move to Saskatchewan. Everyone is welcome to join me. We can start a queer commie worker's cooperative that provides mental health, public transportation and a fabulous mocha frapaccinos ( Read more... )
