If anyone really wants to get active, I would suggest finding a local candidate and or group and let them know you only want to do phone banking like in a place with others, or do canvassing in pairs. It is SOOOOO much easier when you have others there with you. The people I got hooked up with in Texas had really good systems. Beto phone banking house parties made it really easy for people to do it for the first time. I would look into swing left or indivisible in your area.
I got stupid. The money was too good.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S slept until almost 9 this morning.Of course, he didn't fall asleep until after 9 last night. And he's been acting out again today.(Talk about difficult 4 year olds...)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
We took our tax return money, marched into Macy's with a well researched list and had a new mattress and box spring in about half an hour. Got all the President's Day sale discount (which was like $700), plus an extra $100 for opening a Macy's account.
Picked up new sheets at Marshalls, grabbed coffee at Peet's, and took the train home and called it a productive day.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
That is a great price on a mattress. Well done!

We were bummed that we got our return after President's Day weekend sale, and then double checked the Macy's site and saw that it was extended through this weekend. Woot!
Our current mattress predates Matilda so, we're long overdue.
Free new box spring too, and free delivery and set up, and free takeawy of the old mattress.

Delivery is everything, man. Especially when you live above ground floor. And taking away the old mattress is a godsend.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Wait, seriously? I'm confused.
Okay, I guess a lot was riding on SC, and he lost big there.

NYT is reporting the same. I liked him well enough, but am not sorry to see the field narrowing a bit more. He made history as the first openly gay presidential candidate, and that's awesome, but I don't think it was his time.

Now he gets to "give" his 26 delegates to someone. I assume that will be Biden, but would be AWESOME if it was Warren.
