3 Things
I said it before and I'll say it again: I'm an introvert and sometimes I have to be coaxed to get out of the house and get active. But oftentimes when I do it, I'm so glad I did. I canvassed again for Marie Newman today. Met the most awesome volunteer, Tessine. We canvassed together and really hit it off. She's young and inspiring. She asked that we exchange numbers so we can go again. She doesn't have a car and she lives far from the district, so I offered to drive her when I can (I can pick her up at the el station as needed).
Everything in the news is so depressing, but it's insane what happens when you volunteer or do activism.
And my new fanfic...I posted chapter 2 and am still walking on air - I'm getting reviews and kudos and faves on ffnet. The whole thing will have about 10 chapters and is basically done, pending some revisions to the ending that my (great) beta suggested.
In other news, we're doing lunch tomorrow for my dad's birthday. Doris is making a pie, one which he liked a lot before. Mom shared the menu with me and it sounds awesome.
