http://www.bilerico.com/2008/11/carpe_diem.phpI've had a busy October and November so far.
.
I've been working increased hours at my job. I just recently returned from Boulder, CO and the CU campus after being honored with keynote speaker duties for their recent TRANScending Gender conference that occurred November7-8. I've been writing a guest post or two for other blogs or have been invited to do so.
I've also been doing local political stuff as well during this just concluded election cycle vetting political candidates for my local GLBT organization's voter recommendation cards.
It's basically me doing my part to think globally and act locally.
Now that we are past a potentially history-changing election, it's time for us to consider what we're going to do to push a progressive political agenda. While it appears that our long conservative nightmare may be over, there are warning signs that there's much work to be done on our side of the political fence as well..
