Though things are bleak in many ways, it was nice to note some good news this week: (in order of importance to me)
The polar bear is finally on the endangered species list (not that this matters to the current administration, but perhaps the next)
John Edwards emerged with an excellent endorsement for Obama, who is apparently destined to be the nominee (so happy to almost have a nominee)
The California Supreme Court overturned what I felt was a very stupid ban on same sex marriage
I successfully rode my bike to work two times this week. That is my goal until it gets dark early again. Drew also rode his bike this week for the second time this month
Last week, I found the perfect bag for my MacBook Pro and all the other things I like to carry around. I had many requirements for such a bag (non leather, nice to touch, no or minimal velcro, zippers sturdy enough to resist my destruction, the right dimensions/pockets for things, a touch of style, not black) Yesterday it finally arrived.
