It's been that kind of week.  I've got my sleep patterns all messed up because of a couple of late meetings this week.  I didn't get home until 9 and was too wound up to go to sleep immediately, so was up until 11 or 12.  So, I'm seriously sleep deprived.

However, the campaign work is going very well.  I've been made the Secretary of the local campaign, Whatcom for Obama.  They seemed hesitant to ask me, because lets face it, not many people like to do administrative work.  But it's something I'm good at and I like to do it (I ought to since it's what I do for a living), so they were thrilled to have me agree to it.  That also means I'll be working with the steering committee for the local campaign as well.

Good news is Barack Obama is coming to Seattle on June 1st!  Anyone in the area that wants to go, tickets can be purchased at https://donate.barackobama.com/page/contribute/seattlekickoff.  A bunch of us from Whatcom County are carpooling up there.  If you're a deep pockets kind of person, there's a more intimate gathering later in the evening.  I believe the minimum price for that is $500 (I'm going from memory, don't quote me on that).

In other news, my sister just got a new job.  She was really struggling with which direction to go and was watching for the Divine to make things clear.  Well, he did.  The second job that she really wanted decided to put hiring on hold indefinitely, so she's taking the first offer.  It's a great job, too, but requires her to move to a small town in Nevada from Texas.  Well, at least she's already used to the heat *laughs* and the town is close enough to Las Vegas that visiting will be much cheaper.

And now I must dash back off to work.  Much to do....much to do.
