things to have in the car upon leaving for writer's group at library Saturday afternoon

(I'm not going to be home until Sunday evening, you see. Sister's stage crewing for a theatrical production which I have to leave for practically the minute I'm out of writer's group, and I'm camping on her dorm floor because I'm not driving two hours on unfamiliar roads in the dark, and then we're going to a square dance an hour farther yet.)

✓ Overnight bag—change of clothes (square dance edition), toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, meds.
✓ Sleeping bag. Pillow. Blanket.
✓ Laptop. Charger. Tablet. Charger. Zip stick.
✓ All the Queer Studies texts.
✓ Printout of directions to [sister's university].
✓ Printout of directions to wherever the hell we're leaving my car when folks meet me on the way from university to dance hall.
✓ Dad's GPS.
* Several cans of seltzer and a few cans of Pepsi.
✓ Toys for Tots things (in three separate bags, because all three are multiparters).
✓ DVD to return to library.
✓ Sailor Moon DVDs on off chance sister desires to watch with me. (nb: unlikely)
✓ Crochet bag with TARDIS scarf and coworker coasters.

Must stop at AC Moore and acquire the dinky art set for swaps, before heading up to library.

...Okay, what am I forgetting this time?

(Don't say "story/ies", I haven't had time to read the others'. I thought I'd just come and listen this first time, get a feel for the group. Also, food plan is fast food.)

...crap it's three-thirty. I'm going to have to set an alarm in order to be up on time to pack all the things and get to the library on time. Which guarantees I won't get enough sleep.

...and after all that, it is too damn rainy to drive unfamiliar roads, so I'm not going to my sister's show. :(

But the upside of that is, I can go nap!

100 college things 78

drawing a total fucking blank on the Queer Studies final portfolio. I still want to do an Internet zine but I have to have a point, not several points, that the zine's making. agh.

In case anyone wishes to prompt me, here is the project outline again, omitting details about the presentation and the works cited and the reflection:

( lil' tl;dr )

due Wednesday fuck fuck fuck.

(no, I haven't managed to use any of the extra time today from not-going-to-sister's-show to work on this, why do you ask?)

Sound-check an idea for my Queer Studies portfolio for me?

"We realize that the liberation of all oppressed peoples necessitates the destruction of the political-economic systems of capitalism and imperialism as well as patriarchy." —The Combahee River Collective's Black Feminist Statement, one of this term's readings

Basically a trans PoV on how to do that, preferably without causing chaos by burning the existing system to the ground*. Possibly with ecofeminism tangled in, I'm not sure yet.

* Not sure it will be possible to replace capitalism without first burning capitalism to the ground.
