the one where the alderman needs to "disappear"...

You know.... Im pretty sure if you read the post from yesterday.. you would think that i was actually excited about this stupid house... and i was.... But im so sick of all the bullshit from ruston.  We had to "stop construction" today because we are being threatened with legal actions from the Alderman of our district-- seriously... what the hell! its like we cant get any momentum because there is always crap like this. 

- I would just like to say that i deleted this whole paragraph because i we against my entire argumnet for the paragraph.

Then we have this argument over who is going to go to the meeting that may may someday (hopefully tomorrow) take place. I, of course, got pissed off because I felt challenged for a spot to go. The argument was: well " blank" and "i" studied and did all the research on the codes, setbacks, and regulations for the neighborhood- fine.. that's perfectly valid. But then i said- well I am the contact for Habitat and I will be the one who has to discuss all this at the meeting next Tuesday night... when the person in question tried to tell me i had an attitude and that my reason for not going wasn't as important- fucking fine- but there are 2 other spot and IM SORRY, but i think feel that this is something I need to be at. Not for personal gratification, but because of the role I play in this gigantic mess we call a class. If the press gets involved.. I will probably be the person to set it up and then Im going to need to know what I am talking about- I mean the whole thing is important, but I think it is situations like this that you cant screw up and say the wrong thing.. or you all get screwed over. 
Maybe I over reacted, but I feel confident that i know fairly well how to handle situations.... and most importantly i know when to be  quiet- and not go off acting like I  know everything about everything- which is something that several people in this class have yet to learn. I hate that.

So for now--- we are back to studio.... which sucks... I need to work on my tan.
