combatting lethargy...

went for a good bike ride for the first time in months. first invigourating exercise i've had in months. god, i'm out of shape.

i want to do critical mass again in june, though. i'm hoping it'll be huge like last year.

...

on tuesday night, i get to find out whether my beloved MOMENTUM magazine is dead for good. it went on 'hiatus' after the october/november issue (which featured my sustainable funerals article) and my fear was that it would never come back. CM and AW, who edited MOMENTUM, are starting up this new venture, MOMpops, which is a series of free one-day festivals to bring together people and families in the community. we're have a brainstorming session for it tuesday, when, presumably, it will be made a little less ambiguous whether this is the triumphant relaunch of the great publication or a celebratory funeral.

oh, MOMENTUM. i enjoyed writing for it because it wasn't overly demanding. i think that with school and everything else going on, a bi-monthly sets the perfect freelancing pace for me. also, i could write just about anything for MOM, and the people i met through it are just such an awesomely diverse and quirky group of hippies. i guess i should try to get off my ass and find someone else to freelance for, but on the other hand, this whole thesis thing should probably take precedence.

stupid thesis. i just hate you so much...
