No... Sleep... 'Til Elections! (to the tune of Beastie Boy's "No Sleep 'Til Brooklyn)
I called my dad in glee Tuesday night because I was driving home and the sun was still up... my words were, "Dad, it was only a 10 hour day instead of a 12 hour day!!!"
I'm going to go through campaigning withdrawals in the end of November, and I love what I do to an admittedly psychotic extent... but I want it to be Nov. 8. I want to make plans with friends without saying "Unless I have to campaign." I want to spend time with aforementioned friends.
Such is the life of a political junkie.
Oh, and next wednesday I'm going to be on a panel with the discussion topic of "Tolerance and Moderation in Modern American Politics" or something like that. Basically a discussion of the polarization of politics and necessary reforms of the electoral college. Should be a good opportunity to either see me be cool or see me be retarded...
