Blue day's blues

.
ما معنى إحالة الاقتراح المتعلق بحق المرأة السياسي إلى لجنة الشئون الداخلية؟؟؟؟
.
أثناء وقوفنا على باب مجلس نصف الأمة، بعد أن طردنا، أتتنا الأخبار بأن الخرافي أحال الاقتراح إلى لجنة الداخلية، والتي يرأسها راشد الهبيدة.. سألنا المحامي عبد الحميد دشتي عن ما تعنيه إحالة الاقتراح إلى اللجنة فقال "عملية تسويف ومماطلة".. ثم أصر على أن الحقوق آتية وأن الشيخ صباح الأحمد لديه "محركات" ستعمل لصالحنا.. يقول اصبروا.. حقوقكم جاية جاية
.
نصبر؟؟؟ صار لنا فوق الأربعين سنة ناطرين وصابرين
.
حراس الأمن منعونا من مقابلة أعضاء مجلس الأمة.. حاولنا مقابلة الصقر تحديدا فقيل لنا أنه لن يخرج قبل الساعة الرابعة.. وفي طريقي إلى سيارتي، وكانت الساعة حوالي الواحدة، رأيت الصقر في المقعد الأمامي من سيارته البي أم السوداء.. حياني بيده وحييته.. وايد علي

Bloggers in the Scene:

I recognized Tata, coz I've seen his picture in some paper.. :) He was pretty cool and active. He gave me a "women's rights now" sign. Thanks, Tata.
.
PSS was there too. She was angry and tried to talk people into remaining seated despite Kharafi's decision.. You go girl!

And I think I spotted Zaydoun in a navy suit, but then I'm not sure it was him or else I would've defenitely said hi..
Zaydoun, if you're the suit guy, You're hot.. (and I'm not hitting on you, walla)

There was also Snookyie's cartoon, and I asked her mom for a copy.. :) Good job Snooks
.
Turnout wasn't so bad.. I'd say around 400??

Yes that was me in the suit and thanks (blushing)

If I hadn't been so focused on taking pictures I would've asked my sis to introduce us

Zaydoun,
I didn't have a camera with me, so I'm glad you and other bloggers have captured the moment, so to speak :)

N,
There are other, more exciting ways to get arrested, don't you think? ;)

Eva,
I know it's been one hell of a blue day, but I don't "bluetooth".
I carry a Nokia 8310.. remember those?
And I wouldn't use a nick name.. it would be 'Shurouq'.. (for lack of creativity)

Sorry I missed ya dear :)

I'm so happy the turn out was good...I wished I was there but you girls/guys made me proud...keep on fighting :)

oh and how fun for all of the bloggers to see each other...I'm a little bit jealous :P

The turn out was good for the short notice + although the crowd was peaceful, the excitement level was high.

Next time, it will be even better inshallah.

It's good to know that you've been spared the look of utter disappointment and shock that we had back in 1999, though to be spared that look by being kicked out of the Parliament is no joy ride.
Spirits seem to be high in reaction to this blue Blue day regardless of the postponment of decision it resulted in. Could it be that the turnout was higher than expected? Or is it just the joy of being part of a demonstration in Kuwait? Either way, I'm sorry to have missed it.
