A Lefty Writes

Geez, I haven't updated in a while. Been quite busy with the campaign. In addition to my usual duties of calling and canvassing, I've been given additional projects to oversee, which is awesome. I'm also one of the few volunteers who's been asked to attend all of the staff meetings. So basically this is all going really well. 40 days until the election and lots to do between now and then.

Oh, and if anyone in the area is interested in attending a campaign event hosted by Robert Reich next monday (July 25th) email me for details. We're looking to get as many people there as possible.

It's been hot as hell this week (80's and 90's and super-humid), which has made canvassing something of a chore. I've taken to bringing an extra t-shirt to work in case I have to change after walking around sweating for 3 hours.

I read the new Harry Potter book last weekend. Definitely worth my time, and I can't wait for the seventh (and final) installment. This book, unlike the previous five, felt like more of a set-up and less of a stand-alone story, but it was still really good. I won't say any more here in case anyone reading this hasn't gotten through the book yet.

I can't believe July is nearly over. The time is really flying.
