OH yeah...

I will say that pics will be forth coming from the rally, because the whole time I kept saying to my self: "I am soooooo blogging about this!"

Thanks for patience while I only thought about blog posts recently. I was *ahem* busy - setting up classroom, back to school night, all that crapola. Ya know!

Notes to self

1. Don't run toward a secret service officer under any circumstances.
2. Don't believe snot nosed rich kid volunteers who tell you how to get in to a rally.
3. Don't lose your mom.
4. Don't drink wine and take codeine cough syrup.
5. If you violate note number 4, make sure you have a strong babysitter who will hide the phone.
6. Don't stand in the rain, under a tree during a thunderstorm in a thin white cotton blouse while wearing that oh-so-sexy see through white bra.
7. Unless - you want said secret service officer from number one to let you go on your own free will.
8. Don't bother trying to protect the disabled.
9. Ok, ignore number 8, you know you'd do the same.
10. Don't promise your mom a front row seat at an Obama/Biden rally, make her work all day, leave her precious dog, deal with a befuddled husband, and let her stand in the rain waiting for you for 4 hours.
11. Never be lulled into the thought that you will ever be "done" with being a parent or worrying.

Live and learn.


All that being said - Obama and Biden were great. And almost worth the case of bronchitis/asthma/pnuemonia or whatever shit I have.
