Legally Blonde’s infamous Elle Woods once came to Washington wearing a lot of pink trying to make a difference. Since then, army’s of women – good and bad depending on your politics (i’m talking Komen for the Cure, Avon walk for the Cure…the good pinks, and Code PINK…aka women who give pink a bad rap). [...]

Why do you care?

September 26, 2008

You know what I’m tired of? People putting other people down because they don’t agree with their political beliefs. Guess what? Two of my best friends are Republicans, I’m a registerred Democrat who spent a year and a half volunteering and worshipping John Kerry. Do I care? No. Do I care that one of my [...]

I’m P*ssed Off

September 8, 2008

August 25, 2008

I like to make up words. I don’t have perfect grammar. I can’t always punctuate well, and sometimes I just don’t feel like using the shift key. You know what though? That is my prerogative. My voice here in my little corner of the internets, is my own. Yesterday, I got a lovely comment on [...]

A little close to home…

May 17, 2008

Over a year ago I got a heartbreaking call in the middle of the afternoon. One of my biggest fears, is getting a call that something has happened to a family member. Last year, when I was working for a government relations firm in a room where there were no windows, I saw my dad [...]

Bernie on Colbert

April 22, 2008

Now for those of you who don’t know this about me, I’m a bleeding heart Democrat. I interned for Bernie in Spring 2005 here in DC and stayed registered in VT just so that I could vote for him in 2006 despite my bitterness that I didn’t get hired for the staff ass position in [...]
