Wow, I haven't come to DA since.....January I think. I've had so much time off lately from Americorps that I'm becomming bored and restless. For those who dont know, Americorps is compared to the "domestic peacecorps". But I like to describe it more as being Volunteer Mercenaries. Why? Because they call us out all over the country to live in the strangest enviroments and we'll do anything. We have a very high learning curve, we're extremely hard workers, we're strong and smart, and we get things done! Oh yes, and they're also shutting us down too because apperently we're too expensive *sigh*.

Just got back from Birmingham, Alabama learning how to do build a house, and this weekend I'm traveling to Slidell, Louisianna to demuck houses that were damaged from the hurricanes for six weeks. Fun!
