So I had an odd gap between appointments today and instead of going home or sleeping on my table or whatever, I went grocery shopping, got a new checking account at a different bank (goodbye, Compass Bank!) and went to see V for Vendetta. Which was awesome. It made me laugh, it made me cry and stuff blew up real good. I haven't read the graphic novel but I'm definitely going to.

The movie got me thinking about revolutions and how they sometimes start small. And I started thinking about the Bright Blue Dot stickers. Just a little red sticker with a blue dot and the words "Another bright blue dot in a really red state," created to combat the hordes of W the President stickers that seem to be everywhere. If you're a blue dot in a red state, you can get one at the official website or you can comment here. I'm giving away four.

I've got another idea in mind, something to do for the fourth of July, but I want to ponder that one for a bit before I officially announce it.

And oh yeah, my trip home this weekend--it turns out that you really can't go home again. I went back to a town that doesn't feel like home, that doesn't have a stranglehold on me anymore. I always thought it had a huge influence on me but it felt like a stranger's city. I don't really feel like this town is my home, either, though. Maybe I'll just be a citizen of the world for a while.
