Subject: hebdo??amStrand: b o l e t i n e s . . .

what a life. i've spent this whole month breathing hard...

taking deep breaths...letting go of anger, taking responsibility, seeking to draw th right lessons...

debating how public to be about this issue...still think i may write/share/publish an open letter to this person as my next installment- after all...th future of wanderlust media as a viable entity may have been radically altered as a a result of this incident & hard lessons learned. for now i will just say i feel that somebody i considered a friend abused my hospitality

& my trust when i...

meanwhile, back amStrand: obsessing about this particular '...hill of beans in this crazy world...' kept me from making

a decision to join th civil disobedience action & be arrested in vieques for trespassing on navy property & getting my '...fair share of abuse...' along w/ edward james olmos, robert kennedy jr., danny rivera, robbie draco rosa, luis gutierrez, &c, &c, &c, two weekends ago.

i may still get my chance. th navy's threatening to renew war games in sixty days which would mean a lovely 4th of july taking deep breaths...

i have taken on added responsibilities, however: my brother javier brought me a cute kitten to hopefully help w/ th mouse problem. for now,though, all he(yup, no pussy for me: it's a little tommy)does is add feline shit to th mouse droppings in th kitchen...
