I'm Sort of Fighting Depression
My best friend Justin is dieing. I knew that. I’ve known that since he told me that he was diagnosed with Acute Immune Deficiency Syndrome or AIDS. I know that AIDS is not the death sentence that it used to be, but I also know that if you don’t catch it in time that it can be.
Justin didn’t catch it in time.

Letter to My Brain
Dear Creative Brain: Why do you persist with the blockage of my creative juices? Why won’t you allow me to write?

I apologize, brain, truly I do, please allow me to write again so that I may finish my book. Sincerely, Vee-Vee

So I want to get involved. I want to do something about what’s happening in Egypt, BEYOND tweeting and blogging and signing petitions. I want to move, to act, to DO something. And yes, I know that there’s really little that I as an American can do to actually bring about change there, but I’d atleast like to show some support.
I want to organize a march or a sit-in or...
