Tired. 

Today at the Walgreens in China Town some drunk, and or high, and or mentally ill Chinese man interrupted my peaceful headphoned state to tell me "You have a nice back." 

"What?" I said

"You have a nice back," and he pointed at my upper back. 

It was one of the more bizarre things someone random has said to me.  I never know how to respond to weird comments. I wish I was good at coming up with an intelligent, quick, fuck you type response. 
At first I had smiled though; but only because I smile when I feel uncomfortable, especially around strange men. I always feel guilty afterwards when I give someone an undeserved smile, like I'm somehow betraying feminism. But smiling for me is a nervous, unavoidable reaction, and afterwards I feel cheap and cheated.  

Yeah anyways, today was eh. Yoga today felt amazing. Though it is hard for me to tell if I am actually improving at all. 

I watched last nights Daily Show tonight online. There was a clip of Sarah Palin saying "I don't like to label myself" when an interviewer asked if she considers herself a feminist. 
If you are running for fucking vice president of the fucking United States and you are a woman you better damn say you are a feminist. Fucking idiot. That women really ircks me... Whateva Obama is so winning and he has championed much more for feminism than Palin thats for sure.
