while you're feeling hopeful, do a little something for a bonus

I am generally pleased with the election results that are in so far. Now I turn my hopes to the lame duck session of congress to actually vote on approval for a site in D.C. for the National Women's History Museum in the House (the act passed in the Senate over a year ago!). There is a Federal site that has been vacant since 1992 that would be perfect for this museum. Please write to your congressperson in support of S. 501, The National Women’s History Museum Act of 2005!

(pass it on)

and another thing

There's a blood shortage on in hospitals. Now that your blood pressure is going down anyway, why not help it along by donating a pint?

I'm off to donate some right now, myself.
