Girls in the Buff take Albany by storm

The title certainly doesn't scream interesting. And for some this entry won't be. But, I'm ok with that.

The excitement lies in the fact that this is the first trip Boo and Boobs have taken outside of the warm womb of Buffalo. The bags are packed, the wine carefully stashed amongst the granny panties and sports bras, the computers secured in their fancy carrying cases, and the classy clothes of the underpaid activist stowed and ready for take off.

For what?

Lobby visits? NOOOOOOOOO.

To visit our capital and revel in the historical relevance of the odd and almost alien like sky line? NOOOOOOOO.

We are here for a training. I'll skip the details of the training, however I want to be clear-we are vapid spiteful mean spirited individuals, but there are reasons for that. Boo and I have dedicated our lives to...gulp...social and economic justice. So, we've seen some shit, and we've seen some shit on top of shit, and we've seen that when you wipe the shit off in hopes of finding something brighter, cleaner, shinier, something you can look at and say "this is why we do what we do" there's just more shit.

Not to say we are completely demoralized, though in reading this it sounds that way. I think we are just both aware of the challenges, politically and socially-as aware as we can considering our own intellectual and personal restrictions-that we face today. And that makes us what we are-vapid, spiteful, and mean-spirited. Often judgemental. There are clearly some daddy issues embedded in that as well, but that's for another blog and another time.

Anyway, now that I've drawn you this far down the blog saying a whole of nothing, I'm going to leave you with this. Basically the entire point of this blog was to write something because we've been remiss in our duties to our adoring fan (Hector from PR, I love you baby).

Aside from addressing some of our high school like social awkwardness  and most likely drinking too much wine and making ridiculous plans to get up and use the treadmill at 6am, most likely this will be a conference full of a lot of talking, discussing jobs, the economy, taxes, messaging, framing, blah blah, some brief fleeting conversations with co workers from across the state and a long car ride home. That's it.

So, throw tomatoes at the screen and leave a comment as to how disappointed you are in this entry.

I AM UNTOUCHABLE.
