Last night I had a dream; the first dream I’ve remembered in months.

To explain something about the way my sleep has been going these last several months; I’ll typically get four to six hours per night during the week, and ten or eleven on weekends.

– What a weird, exhausting, disorienting week.
– Yesterday, I made headway on addresses. Off my list (about 50% of total invitees), I’ve made contact with everyone except two people… I’m still trying to pin down their info.
– When I got home from work, I took a nap, woke up around seven, photographes Lakewood-Balmoral (probably the dullest of the Edgewater neighborhoods I’ve photographed so far), got some fresh bread, pork n’ beans, and beer, and stayed up past midnight watching the original Night of the Living Dead.

It’s 1:18 and I should be in bed.

That site is:

That is… we’re all new here… so leave your tag.

Last December, mindful of gloom and thunder, I posted this. Six months later, when news in both Flint and the world at large tends to be more often depressing, something wonderful has happened.

In the (well-chosen) words of the Flint Journal:

‘The rock’ reborn
People’s billboard, with care, could be better than ever
Monday, June 20, 2005

Whether it was creatively applied pressure or Don Williamson wising up on his own, we applaud the mayor’s decision to resurrect “the rock” as the people’s billboard.

COMMENTS:
– It was a long weekend, but one with little fanfare. On Friday, we had a residents day, so there really wasn’t much to do after eleven. I took CTA down to the Auditorium building (Michigan and Congress) and “poked around” for awhile (ie.
