It's Election Season and I have officially signed my life over to the cause. If you want me, I'll be tabling and buried under the voter registration cards and the voter guides.

--------------------I'm in Waterville til Wednesday (which rocks, like whoa), but I'm not going to write about that until I get home a la Tennessee post. I haven't done memes in a decent amount of time, but Dan did this and I think it's ( Read more... )

A great deal has happened since we last spoke and by a great deal, I mean more than can fit in this livejournal post. But here's a go at it all ( Read more... )

I am in Tennessee. It is awesome! A full recap when I get home on Sunday.
