9/30/01 it’s official

Well, it’s official, as reported on Minnesota Public Radio—MAPE’s executive board voted unanimously to strike. I fear this won’t be easily resolved.

the strike seems imminent

My chances of going to work as usual are not looking good.
The reality of walking off the job hasn’t really sunk in till now; I actually may not be going to work as usual on Monday. It’s strange that only now do I realize the pride I have in doing my job.

9/27/01 Universe “could condense into jelly”

9/25/01 “Yeah, so are all the yuppies.”

Thought I’d check in.
Took my first yoga class yesterday. Nick accused me of being a yuppie because of that. I said I was doing it for my health, and he replied, “Yeah, so are all the yuppies.”

I called the blood center around 4:30 pm today, and they said it’d be better to come in tomorrow morning since they still had a lot of people waiting to give blood tonight (they just closed, at 7). So I’ll probably go first thing in the morning (and I’ll make sure to eat a good [...]
