Sentimental for American History

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

I've spent the last week watching a bit of the HBO John Adams miniseries each day. I just finished the last part, and highly recommend it. John Adams' closing words (which are not an actual quote, but are certainly inspired by his life and feelings) were an especially nice touch. ...

Obama & My Mama

My Feet Are Sleepy.

It's almost 11pm and I just got back from caucusing at a nearby elementary school. We had to stand outside in the cold for over two hours before we even got inside and got started. There were several precincts meeting all at one place (but divided up within) -- some ...

  My sister and I (early) voted yesterday! (And we made sure to get a receipt so we can caucus on the 4th.) Great things are ahead.

Obama Mania

Saturday, February 23rd, 2008
