Update

Some things have happened. As a result, I've been entirely uninspired to write a thing since my last post. Nothing major, in the "Grand Scheme," but I'm nonetheless finding even this sentence extremely difficult to piece together. Anyway, I've experienced a shift in the past couple days. I've been struck by a faint glimmer of inspiration, and with that I give you the following updates. I'll start with the uninspiring, and finish with the inspiring.

1) The Story Tent: After visiting Occupy Olympia in the first week of its existence, the idea occurred to me to pitch a tent. I intended to set up my camera inside and give those involved in Occupy Oly time to tell their stories. The plan was to archive the stories on this blog. I posted an ad on craigslist listing my tent needs, and sure enough a tent to my exact specifications was donated. Long story short, the timing was wrong. The tent remained in the back of my car until I donated to Occupy Oly's supply tent where I hoped it would be put to good use.

2) Oly Acts @ Mud Bay: Since the first conversation from which Oly Acts was born, we envisioned a venue through which we could serve our community and spread some love. Of all the ideas we discussed, this one caused the most excitement. Recently, it's taken an abruptly plausible turn. We've got approval to use Mud Bay after close. Jeremiah and I bought a PA system. All that's left (figuratively speaking) is booking. To this end, I (along with everyone else involved in Oly Acts who takes interest) intend to begin show-going downtown and getting to know the local musicians. I'll also be creating a booking page for the blog, which will allow musicians to contact us to book shows.

That's all for now folks.
