alright, so my exploits today have left me cold, exhausted, and just hoping that this concert is going to go well.

made a million and a half posters and posted them all around campus, sent emails asking for support, and then, oh yes, then i went to the university of vermont to hang them.

now, keep in mind that i attended a tiny high school (graduating class of 33) and currently attend a somewhat larger (but still pretty damn small) college. at the places i've gone to school, everything is where it should be and all is relatively easy to get to.

but groovy uv? oh no. i drove in without problem, but then had to find visitor parking. the signs were horrible--didn't tell me where the hell to go, so what do i do? i try to find the one place i know on that campus--the library.

well, as i drive by amused uvm students on the "shuttle only" one-way road, freaking out because there are shuttles coming and it looks like they're going to turn onto the one-way road i'm driving on in the opposite direction and looking for somewhere--ANYWHERE--to turn, i'm shrieking (thankfully, with the windows up) about how fucking ridiculous the campus is! "I HATE UVM!!!!"

eventually, i found parking--by the fucking water tower--so then i had to march around campus trying to figure out where to hang the posters. didn't see a bulletin board in the library, so i decided to just hang a poster on the post by the library. the old mill building? fucking maze of rooms. so i found a couple of bulletin boards and just tacked the damn pieces of paper up. i spent a good hour there, i don't know how many people will see the posters, but i tried my best, dammit.

i think i'm going to go back tomorrow with some more copies and find new places to put them.

all things considered, i must have put up one hundred posters today. i'm tired, frustrated, and i just want this to work out. i'm hoping hoping hoping it will.
