| | - My body declared war on me earlier this year. I've had a lot of minor but annoying issues that aren't even consistent from one week to another. Most afflict my GI system or neck and back and only respond moderately to medicine and other remedies, then go away or at least get better after a week or so.
- After attending the Democratic State Convention in support of Obama, I spent a month or so away from politics. Just as I started to get involved again, a job fell in my lap, so I now work four afternoons a week (plus occasionally online) for the campaign of a local candidate.
- Rather than quickly getting sick of politics, I find that I'm loving it even more. But what I love isn't so much the machinations behind the scenes and the poll-watching strategy. I like the conversations.
- My long distance relationship has been dealt the Death card. As any tarot novice can tell you, Death doesn't have to mean finality, but continuing on requires a pretty radical transition. We won't know which will be the case until this weekend, in, of all places, Amarillo.
- Kare's new apartment is spectacular. And I can't wait to try out the new bed. It's waist-high and very soft, so interpret that any way you like. :)
- I'm beginning to leverage clients for a side business. I'm trying to work up a business plan that stretches from simple web design to tax preparation but that will still allow me some time to write. I've been full of ideas all summer, but almost no follow-through.
- I am craving a social life. Not dating or sex (well, not often), but time spent sitting down and talking with cool people. All of my friends are spread far and wide, and I keep wanting to throw a party, but I have no idea when or how I could pull one off, especially since my free time will become more and more rare as we approach the election.
