what Obama means to a girl who grew up with Bush

I'm 20. I was born in 1988. I remember when Clinton was elected in 1992 because my mother told me that it was the first time in her life she's voted for a presidential candidate who won. I didn't have any political awareness until late elementary school, when we had a model United Nations, and even then the only issues I knew anything about were international-- we talked about nuclear issues worldwide, Tibet, and the Iraq and Saddam Hussein. I didn't get any awareness of national politics unt… Continue

Found Balloon, Lost Balloon

I found a balloon on my ride home today! It was really windy, and I was scooting home from work on Tijeras, right before it becomes MLK, and this balloon got swept up by a gust of wind and flew directly in front of my scooter. It was too good to resist-- I reached out and caught it! I… Continue

Google Street View in University Area RIGHT NOW

I just saw the Google Street View car in my neighborhood driving between Silver and Central on Stanford. If you want to get yourself doing something on Google Street View, get into that neighborhood now.

Hey Nora, don't mean to sound stalker-ish or anything but I saw your reply about the apartment downtown... the house I'm living in (~4 blocks from UNM) just had 2 rooms open up. We're gamer types, and believe it or not we contemplate the zombie apocalypse quite frequently. Rent would be stupid cheap especially if we found another person to fill the other room. If you're interested drop me a line here or at kroybal@unm.edu.

Thanks. When I can figure out how to articulate it, I will. In the meantime, a different kind of "Nancy" game is visible on the front & back covers of Artnews Annual 34, from 1968. Maybe at the FAL?

Hey, Nora. I'm a former CNM classmate, fellow UNM student. And I've always dug your blogs. So, I'm adding ya. Reciprocate if you like, eh?
