Due to my lack of actually doing anything productive (other than trying to write something, though everything that's coming out is just bad, bad, bad) I've decided to volunteer at Hoshen (English version here).

I'm not the volunteering type, at least I used to be, I always found it such a waste of time, mostly my mother's, since she's the volunteering type and she never seemed satisfied by what she was volunteering in.
It's only lately that I've come to understand why it really is beneficial to give some of your free time for, well, free it means you really have to give something of yourself to an idea you believe in, or at least an idea you feel has merit and want to advance.

I got an email back from them and they should be contacting me over the next few days to see if I'm even compatible to be a volunteer with them, since there are few volunteers in Hoshen.

Wish me luck :)

Good luck. If they don't take you and you want to volunteer at the sexual harassment hotline, buzz me.

Good for you! I volunteered at a Hospice. I know you will enjoy it and who knows what you are they will learn from each other. :)

V and Justice

V: Ah, I was forgetting that we are not properly introduced. I do not have a name. You can call me V. Madam Justice...this is V. V... this is Madam Justice. hello, Madam Justice.

Justice: Good evening, V.

V: There. Now we know each other. Actually, I've been a fan of yours for quite some time. Oh, I know what you're thinking...

Justice: The poor boy has a crush on me...an adolescent fatuation.

V: I beg your pardon, Madam. It isn't like that at all. I've long admired you...albeit only from a distance. I used to stare at you from the streets below when I was a child. I'd say to my father, "Who is that lady?" And he'd say "That's Madam Justice." And I'd say "Isn't she pretty."

V: Please don't think it was merely physical. I know you're not that sort of girl. No, I loved you as a person. As an ideal.

Justice: What? V! For shame! You have betrayed me for some harlot, some vain and pouting hussy with painted lips and a knowing smile!

V: I, Madam? I beg to differ! It was your infidelity that drove me to her arms!

V: Ah-ha! That surprised you, didn't it? You thought I didn't know about your little fling. But I do. I know everything! Frankly, I wasn't surprised when I found out. You always did have an eye for a man in uniform.

Justice: Uniform? Why I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. It was always you, V. You were the only one...

V: Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots!

V: Well? Cat got your tongue? I though as much.

V: Very well. So you stand revealed at last. you are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another.

Justice: Sob! Choke! Wh-who is she, V? What is her name?

V: Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that justice is meaningless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So good bye, dear lady. I would be saddened by our parting even now, save that you are no longer the woman I once loved.

*KABOOM!*
