You know, it surprises me that this xanga is still active.  They don't shut down if they are left untouched for almost a year?  Well, I guess I might as post something then.  Maybe I'll think up something more useful to say in the near future.  For now I'll just post a hello and see who is still out there.

Here are a few photos of my exploits.  I tried to post more, but it wouldn't let me.  So, for the next post, it will be more photos!



This is Gillian Sorenson, the former assistant secretary general of the UN and current senior advisor and national  advocate for the UN Foundation.  I saw her speak about the UN's role on the War on Terror at American University. 


This is Sen. Stabenow's legislative coordinator and I.  I came to her office to ask her to be a signer on the letter to the Arab League asking them to stop supporting the government of Sudan and appeal to them to support bringing in peace keeping troops.  All 100 Senators and about 2/3 of the House signed the letter.


This is one of our delegations for the Stop Violence Against Women campaign.  We are at the Guatemalan Embassy asking them to take action on the femicide in their country. 


This is our delegation to the Mexican Embassy for the Stop Violence Against Women campaign.  They were much more professional about the topic than the Guatemalan Embassy.


This is a picture of Kate and I outside of the Mexican Embassy. 

I decided to start a new blog.  I am still keeping this one for more personal entries and so I can comment on my beloved xanga friends sites, but I felt it was time to get a more political type blog.  If you want to check it out, click here.

I'm hoping that I will post on both of them more frequently than I have been.  How have all of you been?  What have I missed out on in the xanga world lately?
