Thursday, 14 September 06 :: crap

how do you say to someone - well, lets see.. i'd like to help out on your lgbtqi speakers bureau as a straight ally.. but here are my quals.. umm.. i used to identify as a lesbian, and, well, now i don't.. but i still totally dig queer rights and all. holy crap, what a fucking difficult thing to do. yeah. just ask me, i just attempted to do it. oh, holy fuck.

oh well.. it is what it is, and thats how i'm choosing to be seen around logan. i'm a straight ally of the lgbtqi community. oh totally. i love them, and i will stand by that to my grave. i don't care what people try to tell me.

on that note, i gotta dig out my winter gear. its pouring out and my walk to the bus is gonna be COLD.

about
i'm brooke, born in '73. i am currently a phd student in instructional technology. this is the blog where i capture all the neurotic, and the few non-neurotic, moments that seem to come with being a phd student (if you want to read less neuroses and more professionalism go to: oer's, dl's, reuse and culture: it's about a phd student researching digital resources in a multicultural world). i have been from eugene, oregon for a long time.. 8 years specifically (its my home now, but i grew up in southwestern virginia), but now i'm here in logan, utah at utah state university. after finding my roots in eugene i never could have expected that i would leave that liberal oasis and head to utah. but i did and there are days when its a blessing and days when i'm tempted to go back to oregon and beg the folks at lost valley educational center to let me move in. but i won't leave because there are days when this process is better than any kind of high i could ever imagine. what else? i collect things, i have 2 cats, 2 kayaks, 2 laptops (i'm a geek - one mac, one pc). i can be emailed at brookesblog@rivervision.com.
