I didn't watch the convention live as we were driving to Maine and then went out to dinner. The outtakes I have seen today have been awesome.
Also, no moose sightings yet despite all the signs that claim they may be crossing.
We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

For all my complaining about my birth certificate, I was able to get a Read ID drivers license without it; my passport and social security card were good enough.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Moose are committed contrarians.

I'm obsessed with the music selections for last night's roll call.

I saw an online post comparing the DNC roll call with the RNC's. A world of difference. The Democrats looked like they were having fun; the Republicans NSM.

Hil, I've been watching your cousin on Firefly Lane, I think. She's good. I like the show, too, so far(Not very far in, but the algorithm did better with that than deciding I'd like "Love is Blind" based on my loving "Crip Camp".)

Day two of conference, and I am so tired from talking to people all day! Have met some great people, but, man, I am tired. Dinner tonight with our crew and then early to bed and the final push tomorrow from 10a-1p. We're one of the sponsors, so we have a booth... with a donut wall! Actual donuts people can take and eat... and chat with us. Brilliant. (I mean, if you're a germaphobe and/or not willing to eat food that's hanging on a wooden peg on a wall, I get it - I've honestly been delighted by the percentage of people who hear "donut wall" and are totally game!) Sadly, none are GF. I am so oppressed. (Er, the donuts are not GF... people probably aren't either if they've just eaten a donut.)
I went to bed before the Obamas speeches last night, so I'm looking forward to watching both of those... sometime. I've heard good things.
[ETA: I do nothing to counter the stereotype the GenX abuses the fuck out of the ellipsis, huh? Oh, well. I'll own it.]
