Congress sent the proposed Equal Rights Amendment to the states for ratification. It fell short of the three-fourths needed.
Today is World Water Day. 1.1 billion people go without safe drinking water. 2.6 billion or 40% of the world's population lacks decent sanitation. This leads to millions of preventable deaths. And the future doesn't look good.
my bro is in amsterdam. and he texts me asking where to go. he says im at the museum. so i ask if he's at the van gogh (previously discussed rembrandt/caravaggio exhibit going on there), the heineken, or the hemp museum. there's a hemp museum he asks? oh dear. i really should be there right now.
he cracks me up. its so him. like he'll just walk around the house, not actually looking but informing me while im trying to read or watch tv etc that he cant find something. he'll literally walk in circles around me till i get up, point in front of him. dude. its right there. look before you ask. i am not your mother!
kids these days ;)
i have to go outside. its sunny. it hasnt been sunny in a long time-whole weekend was pretty brutal weatherwise. feckin freezin. and i was walking around barefoot-toughening up the soles for the marathon people! ah yes the marathon im running in 4 days. so on sunday think of me. and hope i dont get lost in the wilds of connemara. the start is like in the middle of nowhere -we've to take a bus to it.
