wal mart…

Monday, April 25th, 2005

I’m so wrong. I managed to pack most things within a short time, but in that hurriedness, I somehow forgot to pack up any of the clean socks I just washed the day prior. That meant a trip to Wal Mart, where I ran into an old school friend who I have to [...]

back on the rez

Saturday, April 23rd, 2005

Made it home last night. It was a warm reception. I was relieved to be in the presence of those I’ve grown up w/ and trust.
On the way up though I had to fly from Kansas City to Denver first. Not a bad flight at all, but @ the airport I was [...]

bad bad news

Friday, April 22nd, 2005

The woman who gave me life now has pneumonia. I’m currently trying to find the fastest way to head home.
Since my phone is nice and broke, I’m hoping to find a way to get ahold of someone to find out what’s going on.

stupid celly

Thursday, April 21st, 2005

My year old phone was taken care of in the not so kind type of ways I’ve accustomed myself in regards to phones. I tried on many occassions to keep it within reach aside from when I was lifting weights. It was there, a way of getting in contact w/ friends and fam [...]

quick mention…

Tuesday, April 19th, 2005

I forgot to write about it yesterday… I was getting out of the shower and my phone rings. I wonder who the heck is calling me all good and early and I was surprised not to recognize their voice. They spoke some type of broken language? I hung up on them. [...]

a matter of time

Monday, April 18th, 2005

I talked to my cousin last night. It seems things are crazy all over. We talked for a long time about how things are going for us. She’s currently starting the process of divorce. We both have similar events surrounding our departures from relationships. Her scenario is more involved though because there are kids involved.
She’s [...]

another week down, 3 to go

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

I’ve finished reading Lorenzo Carcaterra’s novel - Street Boys. It’s a weird thing. Things are going on and for the most part you get caught up in things. In the end though, it winds up being kind of a downer. Understandable though, because it is set in WWII times and things [...]

new day, same stories

Wednesday, April 13th, 2005

I was thinking things are good, sorta. My cousin was safely home and recovering while enjoying her birthday this last weekend. I tried calling, but was unable to talk to her. Then yesterday was my brother’s birthday. I called him up and wished him a happy b-day, but then the news came. One of our [...]

Thursday, the day of days

Thursday, April 7th, 2005

Well I get to call back home when I can and find things still run at their own pace, usually slow. People still do the things you expect them to do, most of the time. It just makes me wish I was back home in the mix of the slow pace of rez life that [...]

Post Red Lake and Pope

Monday, April 4th, 2005

So Red Lake happens and that’s unexpected and sad. The tribe handled it very surprisingly and by handling it like they did took a powerful step for natives all over. They were criticized for using their trump card like they did, and a lot of nonnatives hate that card - Sovereignty. The Council limited media [...]

a fool who feels undecided

Friday, April 1st, 2005

Yesterday (march 31st) was an odd day. I woke up getting ready for a day of reading my writtens to people in public. I orginally planned on finishing up some of the unfinished stuff I got scattered to and fro in my room, but that didn’t quite happen as originally planned. I [...]
