Everything I'm wrong about... so far. (There's bound to me more).

| Who WOULDN'T tweet about that? |
Let's begin with the obvious, I can't lay the blame at anyone's feet but my own. I totally called the wrong date on the anti-foreclosure law rally today. Everything was yesterday, I didn't pay attention to what was going on and I jumped the gun. What can I say? I'm a sucker for a dude standing alone with a sign.
Before getting into this any further, I feel it is necessary to let you know, I'm wrong. Alot. Like a really lot. That's kind of another reason (I'm finding) why I'm taking part in this zany process. I won't hide the fact that I'm wrong, as a matter of fact, I'll probably do something like this.
So, what did I learn from this? Seems like common sense, but I'm kind of dumb like that sometimes;
Rule #1: Read the flyer, take a picture of it, read it again, and again and again.
Rule #2: Double check with the cats organizing the event.
- Ask questions (they love that! no really folks at these events are usually there to help!)
- Engage in conversation about the topic being protested, figure out what's really going on, discuss the topic at hand and see if there are any other resources that can be pulled from.
Above all, don't be afraid to be wrong. Making mistakes is an opportunity to learn. If you notice I've made a mistake, please let me know sometimes I really am that oblivious.
