No big computer, either. I've got my netbook with my mobile broadband key, but it doesn't have the crunch power to do everything I need to do for Feministe or my other clients. So I've got a few hours with no big computer, no TV and no radio. I may have to engage in housework!

Im not sure what exactally was going on in this god forsaken town that I live in... but NOONE had any. Personally, I would like to think that they ALL ran out at the same time! BUT more than likely... some fundamentalist christians bought them all up to prevent the "killing" of babies. BLAH. It reminded me of our battle against the majority and how much protecting my rights as a woman meant to me. I was more disturbed by the fact that the hospital had none in stock either... and Halloween being one of the "holidays" with the HIGHEST assult rate, I was saddened for those women who had to deal with the same red tape that I did, in the event of an assult!

Small - this particular theme as modified for wordpress.com looks very oddly aligned if the gravatars are not enabled. Sadly, not all themes over here can cope with a custom header, so that was the priority. Sorry about that, S.A.
