it's vagina season!
i wish i could chart how much the word 'vagina', or derivations thereof (like "vag", "v-love", "vajayjay", and even "vagilicious"), has tumbled across my lips over the past few months. i suspect, starting in october, the instances to be low, climbing exponentially high in february, and then with a sudden drop-off in march. the more you're around it, the easier it is to say, and the more it is dropped into everyday conversation, much to the shock, sometimes, of friends and strangers alike. this year, due mainly to the fact that a huge work event is happening during the exact same time frame as our shows, i'm not on stage, but i am still (quite) involved in the vday movement as the publicity chair of the UCSD Vagina Monologues production. that means i'm responsible for getting the word out, which will hopefully translate in to ticket sales. while that is proving to be tough in these economic times, at least i've had a pretty vagtastic time doing it. check it out: women are the world's greatest natural resource, they hold life. women as young as 6 months and as old as 80 are being raped, mutilated, and killed as a tactic of war. they are being broken and abused by their husbands because that's their job. imagine your mother being raped, your sister being beaten, your daughters, grandmothers, friends... help do something about it: donate today!
