i'm sittin' at my desk - only for a minute or two today - wonderin' how the heck this came to be - and ain't it a beautiful thing...

ya see i'm borrowing nanette's truck for the 3rd time in a week because tcask needs at least 2 functioning, safe to drive, cars to keep up with the demand for its services ... i.e. educational presentations and mobilization events...

my brother donated a 2000 dodge intrepid to tcask in 10/04 and it has served our work well ... but now we need another, safe, reliable vehicle 'cause right now i won't see the lil' jesuit dude all week until friday ...

he's in lenoir city tonight, knoxville tomorrow, and carroll county wednesday and thursday ... and thursday night he bops over to chattanooga for a very special meeting and he'll be in the office friday...

i was at spring hill high school (by the saturn plant) today talking with a current events elective class of about 25, ill be on the hill tomorrow lobbying and assisting with mental health day on the hill, and thursday i'm presenting to a class of social work students at tn state university ... oh, and i have a boatload of administrative, fundraising, and outreach work to do by the end of the week ...

so as much as we use the bus we need a second car ... or else we'll have to say NO to some invitations and that would be a tragedy ...

what a change in needs in just a year ---

got a used, well-maintained, and reliable jeep, suburu, or honda anyone???
