Wow! I have accomplished so much in the last few weeks. I found out I got a job as a Field Organizer for the Congressional and Senatorial Races in Colorado. I immediately set out to find a subletter, to pack all my things, get movers to pick up my furniture and move back home to Texas for a week and a half before heading over to CO. I found out I got the job on a Friday and was out of Boston by Wednesday afternoon.

I got home to Texas and kind of got out-of-sync. I spent all my time stressing about finding a car and learning how to drive it. I had only driven a few times in the past with my parents. Now I had a week to learn how to drive. I took the online Adult Education Class and passed. Then I took the test the day I left for Colorado. Thank Goodness I passed! I also got a car 5 days after I got to SA. I am now the owner of a 2003 Saturn Vue. I am still getting use to it, but after all the driving I have to do for the campaign; I think I will be a pro by November 2.

My job is going to be all consuming. I will be working 10-14 hours a day, 7 days a week. My reading is going to really slow down for the next few months, but I am determined to continue reading and maintaining my blog. I might even have a contest coming up in a few weeks.

I am very happy I have this opportunity to work for such an important race. I am a Democrat. We cannot afford to lose any seats. If we lose seats, getting bills passed in the House and the Senate will become even more difficult. I know I am going to learn so much and I hope it leads to even greater opportunities. I probably won't be participating in any memes until I find a rhythm in my routine. And please excuse any grammar mistakes. I wrote this very fast without my contacts on and I have no idea where my glasses are.
