We were all out in the backyard this evening when a man walked by and gave us a very odd, almost disparaging look. I couldn't decide why. The obvious choices are as follows:

a) We were in the middle of building a decidedly non-kosher sukkah (due to area/construction constraints - it was under a tree and had some creative support going on).

b) Both kids were sitting on top of the privacy wall, Daniel without a shirt on.

c) We had an Obama for President sign sitting up on top of that same privacy wall.


I wonder if it was the sum total of all of them that did him in. ;-) Dave thinks it was the Obama sign. I think it was the strange shack we were constructing.

I've been doing quite a bit of volunteering for the campaign. It feels fun, and like I'm being productive in ways I haven't been in a long while. Overall I really like it. Anyone who's a supporter and wonders if it's too late to volunteer...it's *not*, at least in Florida. Everyone is welcome.

I have a lot more to write about, but for now...sleep. I hope.

I've been volunteering/canvassing/phone banking since Labor Day up here in Wisconsin. What do they have you doing? :)

So far, canvassing and data entry, though I'm sure at some point I'll be tapped for phones. Most of my available time is in the mornings or on weekends, and I think they usually do phone banking in the afternoons.

I may end up being tapped to be a neighborhood team leader too, which scares me a little, both in terms of the time it will take and my own issues with self-confidence.

The energy is really amazing, isn't it? To me, it feels positive and powerful and I have more hope now than I would have thought possible.

Thanks for your political posts; I'm really enjoying them.
